Which assembly plant was your RR built in? Lynch Road (A) and Saint Louis (G) assembly usually on the upper right and just a little inboard.

LA (E) mostly on the left.

Having worked on the line back in the day, there were no specific placements other than "on the inside of the trunk lid".
Could be on the right if the worker was right handed or more left if they were left handed. twocents beer

Have to disagree with the right hand left hand theory as the majority of the Lynch Road jack instructions would have been put on by a left handed person if one thinks about it. Much easier to place it in that position standing to the right of the right rear quarter panel and reaching over. Wasn't there a rolling assembly line under the center of the car that called for left and right side assembly line workers?

Correct the line was moving, however I don't know how anyone can say they always leaned over the 1/4 panel to do so unless of course they were the person doing it. I can't say for sure how the label was placed as I wasn't on the Lynch road line. I was just offering an input based on my actual line experiences beer

Mine's a Lynch Rd car as well (with the 70 X).

Well, I learned something today. It's a note for the workers down the line for the spare tire.

Thanks.
