A110 - Identity Solved

I have a Lazy Daze camper mounted on a 1968 Dodge pickup. We always thought it was an A100; Its NOT. The VIN plate says A110.

When we tried to get new front brake drums, they could not cross reference the proper size. Here's why: Dodge made a heavy duty version of the compact truck series, both 90"-wb and 108"-wb.

This heavy duty version is mentioned in the 1968 sales brochure for the 90"-wb body as: "5,200 GVW package". By reading through all the footnotes and fine print, I found what the package included. The link below charts the differences:

For VVs with what identifies as A120, you may find the same HD upgrades take the standard 4000 lb version A108 up to a HD 5400 lb version A120.

RodStRace: Thanks for you encouragement to get this figured out.

Thanks for posting this . It's news to me.

Is there a 2nd vin type plate on the dash board closest to the drivers door ????

Since I'm in Tampa Bay, FL and the A110 is in Pueblo, CO with my son the mechanic, I can't answer immediately. I'll ask him to look when he has the shop open on Monday.

The reason i asked is i've seen that plate at that location and never knew what is was...

Do you recall its contents - did the data on it duplicate the one in the door frame by the drivers left butt? Was it on a Dodge or a Fargo?

Approximately what size does my son look for? Was it atop the dash or on the end where a closed door covered it?

I've only seen it in photo's it may have been goverment but the owner said he bought it new, can't find the photo thou.

The government LOVES to add extra tags. Military, forestry/fire service, even old mail trucks got 'em.
Clarendon, glad you got it figured out and shared it.

Sorry it took do long to reply. There are NO other stickers or plates on the dashboard.
