I bet they were part numbers stenciled on. Have a look at the parts book and see if they make sense.

Default general militart district?

With frigging around in the garage the other night and relooking at the markings on the bracket I now have noticed the first letter is a G....could this marking G M D stand for General Military District? But then we have the number ?6922...
With the other bracket its the same markings but standing from the rear they go from inside to the outside so they couldent be part numbers as they are 2 inch block letters and they would always be in the same location or close...I would think.
