Installation notes

The data plate is secured to the generator housing with 2 drive-screw rivets (type U, zinc-plated). Please note: rivets are not included with this data plate and must be ordered separately. Installation requires riveting tools or can be professionally carried out using a centre punch.

Compatibility

This data plate is suitable for various Auto-Lite generator series: GEG-5001A (early ball bearing version 1941-1942), GEG-5002D (mid-war ball bearing version 1942-1944) and GEG-5101D (late bushing version 1944-1945). The data plate itself is blank and must be stamped after fitting with the correct model number, serial number and production date for the respective generator.

Historical context

Auto-Lite generators were standard equipment on WWII military jeeps and supplied the 6 volt electrical system with power. The identification plate was originally screen-printed onto a steel plate and contained information about model, serial number and amperage.
