Please note: this cable is supplied without handle – this must be ordered separately. Check beforehand that your vehicle has the late type transmission brake (internal expanding shoes) and not the early external band-type handbrake.
Compatibility
Only suitable for late type handbrake with internal expanding shoes on transmission. Not compatible with early Willys MB with external band-type handbrake. Ford GPW and Hotchkiss M201 primarily used this later system.
Historical context
Ford GPW jeeps were built by Ford from 1941-1945 as a licensed version of the Willys MB. The Hotchkiss M201 was the post-war French licensed production (1952-1962) and used largely the same handbrake construction as the late GPW.
