Ford Data plates
 

I have seen a few variations of the Ford data/shift plates. On some, there are changes in the data or artwork. These two plates come from a 13 Cab F60L (top) and a 13 Cab F15A (bottom). The F15A plate says the spark plug gap should be 0.025 and the F60L says 0.030! Does anyone know why there is 2 specs and when did the change occur? The Maintenance Manual MB-F1 shows a gap of 0.025.

I have also found this Data/shift plate in etched brass, the only one I have ever seen!

I am having these made up as repro's, silkscreened on to anodised Aluminium. The data/plates on the right are (top) F8/F15, (middle) original F15A, (bottom) F30, F60S/L w/o PTO. I am in need of a F60S/L with PTO plate to copy, either to purchase or to loan.

I have pictures of three F15A. So I found in all three trucks another variation of the data/shift plate. The colours are inverted, the background is white and the letters are black. They are not in aluminium or brass, they are like decals. Also there is a plate for the font axle drive, background red, letters black.

Do you know anyone who makes the decals (oil filter, oil bath breather, tank radiator overflow etc) and the aluminium plates of the inside of the door (vehicle identification plate, publication plate and vehicle code plate)? I know four trucks and there are only two plates, the other ten plates are missing.

Dirk Leegwater has some decals for the Oil Bath Air Cleaner, but I haven't seen anyone who does the shift plates as decals

Try the above outfit in upper New York states.... I beleive they have every Ford related decals you may need except unique CMP shift patterns.

They are a reputable firm..... they also have the rear inner seals for the rear axle and repro door handles for the cab 11/12.
