Hello Kirk , Yes there were different covers as you have two of the designs in your picture but you will notice the casting number is the same , all of the 4 cylinder covers have the shifter in the same place and shimming is usually about .050 max. . The cover in the right side of the picture is the better cover because the shift rails are enclosed and well lubed , the early design has exposed rail ends which tend to rust when not shifted for long periods of time hence the reason many early Shermans are stuck in gear . That design change was made in 1960 . The earliest Sherman I have seen has a serial number of around 65,000 as ALL Shermans are Stamped with serial numbers in the front of the case . Check the two you have apart and you will see the serial numbers on them and post what they are . Thanks Tony
