I have owned a few 1968 back cars & none of mine have had date code stamps on the jacks.

I have also heard over & over that the date codes on these did not start until the 1969 model year.

Then I found this A body jack with 7L on the rivet head for November of 1967 (1968 model year) so when did they really start date coding these?
