I have read on this forum that the later ones had SM gears, but my parts book does not indicate that -- no SN break. My book would have later numbers in it as it was printed in March 1960. It could be that the old gears were discontinued when the new ones came out, thus there is no need for a SN break. However the gear numbers in my book have the D suffix. Newer parts had the R suffix after 1945. Thus my conclusion (subject to correction) is that there were no SM gears in the later M's. If there were they would have been in the very late ones, shortly before the SM came out. If your M has the original engine (chassis and engine serials do not match) it makes your M about a 1950.
