Dunno about 3/4-tons but the 78 discs on my 70 have it cast on rear side of the rotor's hub. Take a peek?

yeah every time I get rotors turned the machine shop looks for the minimum thickness marking that is casted or stamped into the rotor or drum.

Yea, there is nothing on it anywhere but it's 1.195 so sounds like the 1.18 figure would be right, thanks.
