Note: This page is for Clark forklifts only. To find a serial number for a forklift of a different brand, for our other guides.
If you are looking for mast parts (or as Clark refers to them “deck parts”), please view our Clark forklift mast ID guide here
Quickest Way to Find the Serial Number
The quickest way to find your Clark forklift’s serial number is to check the forklift’s data tag (also called a data plate or nameplate). This useful plaque displays various details about your lift–its model, how much it weighs, how much it can lift, and (most importantly) its serial number. If you have a Clark forklift parts catalog for your machine, the serial number will also be printed on the front cover. On a Clark forklift, the nameplate looks like the image to the right and is often found near the dashboard or the seat, like in the image to the left:
What if the Nameplate is No Longer There?
But what if your forklift’s nameplate has worn down or fallen off? Don’t panic. A Clark forklift’s serial number can be found physically stamped right on its frame. Often, this number is stamped in the left-hand frame member of the chassis. For example, to the right is the frame stamp from the forklift shown above. So, if you’re in dire need of your serial number and your nameplate is out of commission, remember to check the body of your truck too!

Can you tell me what year my Clark forklift is? Model number- C500-50LPG
Serial number- 50-191-2520 LPG
1970
year ? Clark Model: CGP25 SN: P365G-0191-0307FB
So with Clark, the last 4 numeric digits of the serial (before the FB) are super important. They’re called lot numbers. You typed 0307 which doesn’t really match up with Clark records corresponding to your model (CGP25). Can you double check those last 4 digits please?
