5 RJ E 1306 is the serial number stamped on the data plate of a truck for sale on eBay. I usually can figure these out myself, but this one has me stumped. This much I think is correct: 5 = Kansas City R = 1948 J = 4100 E = May Right? This poor stakebed truck with dual rear wheels is being called a 3/4- or 1- ton. Thanks!
Yes that's right, but it should be noted the "R" is only used in 1948 for the 4, 5 & 6000 Series trucks. The 3000 Series trucks had "F" as the first letter in the year/model code...
Who is calling it a 3/4 or 1 ton?

The seller. At first glance I thought it was a 1-ton. There’s no front bumper and the fenders didn’t look bigger... But a closer look at the pictures shows 10 studs on the rear wheels.

Did you "click here or press enter? Works just fine for me on the OP's VIN.

Are you sure it isn't "busted"? I did notice that before it had a popup to click to allow Adobe Flash to run on the site. Didn't do that the last time I checked.
