Does anyone know what the years were for the different style of CA lift latches. I picked up a mix box of broken latches that should be a simple fix but there are 2 different styles of formed metal top latches and I know I have seen them with the cast style top. I'm not that picky as long as they work but i'm just curious.

Thanks

I think only one type or fabricated top was made, could be wrong. The cast top was later style. Post pics of the fabricated ones, I am curious of the differances. Thanks Tracy Martin
