			While working on my front stub axle mounting plates I noticed a difference between some of the plates and thought I would share it with others. 
		
		
		
			I have come across 3 different plates- see the pics. The red plate appears to be original and not a modified or butchered plate. I have several of each (except for the red plate) L & R, so they are not one off items. this thread may prompt others to share some production changes/differences- so post away! I know there is some variation on stowage boxes and the mounting of the locking latches.

			There is also a cast version for the Local Pattern carriers, similar to the Canadian and English carriers. Axle pin presses in like the cast ones.

			Dale's thread/question as prompted me to add these pics with the jack bracket. 
		
		
		
			Notice the difference in locking nut or wing nut.
