Sdkfz. Part Numbers

[harrison987]

Hey guys...

I recently found an inverted steering assembly that I was told was Sdkfz. 251...

but...

it looks slightly more simplified than another one I have.

The one I have now has the following part number moulded into the body:

"0 21B32xxxx"

From what I know...most 251 part numbers started with "21".

it also features a diamond-shape manufacture logo.

This other "simplified" one is marked:

"054301"

But...it features the SAME diamond-shaped manufacture logo.

Do those numbers mean anything to anyone? Is it possible the simplified one is OT-810?

Hi

diamond shaped could mean it was made by Borgward , or even Renault.
partnumbers starting with "021" were also present on all panzer IV parts.

a pic will tell more if you would like to share it.
