Sub Frame Question

samprinci · Post by **samprinci** » Mon Mar 01, 2010 9:31 pm

Hi all,
after some conflicting comments regarding my ute & the Originality of the sub frame???? I just wanted to c if any one could shed some light on the issue & also post their sub frame stamped numbers up.

The conflicting issue is that my sub frame is or is not original. the letters are different to usual number. then I was told that they used different number stamping in WA. Body was an Adelaide build & sub frame Perth.

I just wanted to see other utes sub frames to see the difference & or hear your comments on the issue.

Here's a pic of mine

look forward to your comments

Sam

I've been told that most, if not all, commercial bodies were Adelaide built and subframes then added at the various final assembly plants.

Sunnytim discussed this on another thread and he was of the same opinion...

The chassis Numbers appear to be all a bit wacky in Perth
