Installation notes
The plate is mounted on the inside of the toolbox against the body, around the lock hole. In original production usually spot-welded, during restoration can also be fitted with screws. Lock is mounted from the inside with two #10-24 screws through the lock ears into the tapped holes of the plate.
Compatibility
Note: Ford GPW vehicles had different lock brackets than Willys MB. Early 1942 GPW bodies had a different bracket design than late composite bodies. Check your body type for the correct version.
Historical context
Ford GPW toolboxes had specific lock mounting brackets that differed from Willys MB construction. This plate is a crucial component of the lock system that secures the toolbox lid.
