47 1/2 ton

I've been at this thing for a while and while working on my grille shell I found that it has a different V form in the very top front where the chin piece fits for the latch. I was told it was off a 47' and I cant find any other difference. I have my old one, it is a 47' and it is definitely different.


Can I just split the chin piece to make it fit or is that going to cause me trouble down the road? The hole pattern looks good on the rest of it. there must have been a model change at some time, if any one knows when it would help to know also. I may have to find another shell or chin.
I'm stuck til I get some info
thanks a lot Bob
