Serial Number

[Arthur Le Blanc]

Where would I find the serial number on a 1994-5 Peachtree Mobile Home. I want to retitle it and MV will not accept the numbers on the cabinet door. Thanks, Arthur

The complete serial number, as pictured below. (This number may be either vertical or horizontal.) is stamped into the front steel cross-member of the home chassis by the manufacturer. The home's skirting or some siding may need to be removed to allow access to this serial number. On older homes, built prior to the HUD code you may need to look on the main "I" beam of the frame ... often on the front door side of the frame near the hitch end of the home. This information can also be found on the data plateif it is still in the home. Look for this in a closet or on the inside of a cabinet door The serial number may also be found on old insurance documents or through a search of building permits by your local building and health department from the time of the original installation. If you have the number off the metal tags that are on the back side (opposite side from where the hitches were) then click thru to The Institute for Building Technology... They can provide you unknown manufacturer data for specific homes from the HUD number on those tags.
