Look down on the frame near the steering box or near the drivers side by the cab and bed.

They are stamped into the frame rails. You can't take them off. Mine is stamped right under the plate that the motor mount bolts to and right under neath the drivers footwell.

The only removable VIN plate is located in the door frame on the 73-78 and the dash on 79-up.
