    Your 900A? Mine's always been registered under its original 7 digit VIN.

    Yep, on the 900A. The plates and title list as just 8 digits, but insurance insisted on 17 digit VIN. Rather than argue, I gave them what they wanted. It helped I was putting together that T800 glider around the same time, so I was able to figure out the digits fairly easily!

    Those are the three spots. Call the pete store in knoxville tn and see if they can get you a build sheet using any numbers you have including the engine data plate and steer axle data plate. A steer change is rare. And pete store is great.

    From Peterbilt build sheet, it was a non-rolling glider.

    FoolsErrand and spsauerland I really appreciate y’all taking the time. And I know he pete house is great. It just gets frustrating when they act like they don’t have the time to deal with your problems.
     
    FoolsErrand Thanks this.
