Body (frame) number of UAZ 469: Where to find it and how to look

UAZ-469 is a Soviet and Russian all-terrain vehicle (SUV), and each vehicle will have an individual UAZ 469 body number, which determines the technical characteristics. The car is distinguished by its light weight, carrying capacity, and the similarity of the arrangement of units with other domestic cars. However, for a long time the numbers were applied incorrectly, resulting in a violation of the current legislation of the Russian Federation.

Specifics of the UAZ-469 body number

You don’t have to look for the UAZ 469 frame number behind the wheel, as is customary. Previously, it was written with paint, so the applied information was not preserved and is now missing. Note! For those cars that were produced relatively recently, the number can be found on the rear crossbeam, which is located between the right bump stop and the tow bar. The body number of new cars is stamped on the rear right fender, so you need to look for it near the awning pillar and door.

When searching for the body number on a UAZ 469 car, you can find a photo and understand how much the process of applying information was violated. The number was printed very loosely. A very thick layer of paint was then applied to the paint. With careful cleaning, you can find the information you need. If the unit is overcooked and produced by a non-automotive manufacturer, corrosion is observed, the necessary information will not be available.

The main information of the UAZ model 469 available to motorists is the engine number. It is recommended to contact inspectors to resolve the issue, since sometimes specialists meet motorists halfway and point out that the frame does not have a number. However, the VIN number is also difficult to find, so it is currently difficult to identify the vehicle and the absence of a VIN cannot be noted in the technical passport. In some cases, even turning to a commercial MREO for money does not resolve the issue, so the UAZ may be the last owner’s car forever or be sent for recycling.

I repeat, there should not be a number there! There used to be a body number on the nurses' loaves. Read the instructions. It's all said there. They also forced me to clean my UAZ sidecar there and were surprised that there was nothing there. Yes, there shouldn't be anything there. All information is only on the sign. Oh, the chassis number is actually on the transfer case. Do not panic! Take the book, the one that came with the car. We got a nasty traffic cop, and an illiterate one at that. Go to someone else! Go to the regional traffic police, they are more literate there. Now you can re-register anywhere, even in another city.

Thank you. I will break through. (Oh, the chassis number is actually on the transfer case). On itself or on the crossbar that holds it. If on the most, then where?

I have the frame number 3303 to the right of the towbar, 10 cm stamped out 98g car, look, maybe it’s there.

Cleaned it to a shine during inspection, no number. Thanks for the info.

Thank you. I will break through. (Oh, the chassis number is actually on the transfer case). On itself or on the crossbar that holds it. If on the most, then where?

At the distributor itself. Unfortunately, there are no instructions at hand. I just remember on the transfer case housing on the handbrake side. I'll find the instructions and send you a photo.

Thank you. Will wait.

Thanks for the info. But the traffic cop looked at the frame near the rear wheel and said there was no number, the inspection had not been passed. He doesn’t tell me what to do.

Oh, it shouldn't exist. The chassis number, in accordance with the instructions for the UAZ car, was marked on the transfer case. I’ve had a UAZ since ’96 and no one has ever checked the chassis numbers. One guy said that he would check now. But there was two fingers' worth of dirt there - I couldn't help it. Write any number in this place and let them prove that it is not a number. Often the Gaits themselves do not know where and what is being applied. It dawned on me that the body number printed on the driver's door of the car does not correspond to the title. According to the UAZ instructions, the body number was actually marked there at one time. I wrote to them in a statement that I don’t know what kind of number this was, when, by whom and for what purpose it was applied... They left without talking.
