Application
Willys MB and Ford GPW from June 1944 onwards (ACM-II bodytubs have four pre-drilled mounting holes). For M38 models 1950-1952 (OE reference 7372677). Holds the standard 12-unit US Army First Aid Kit (item 9777300/9777400) securely in place under the dashboard.
Installation notes
The bracket mounts with four bolts to the bodytub under the dashboard, centrally positioned left of the glove box. Ensure sufficient clearance from the gear levers. On early MB/GPW (before June 1944), the mounting holes are not pre-drilled - consider carefully whether you wish to drill the original bodytub.
Compatibility
Fits late WWII Willys MB and Ford GPW (ACM-II bodytubs, June 1944 onwards) and M38 (1950-1952). Not all MB/GPW jeeps had this bracket originally fitted - many were only retrofitted later in the field. For early models (before June 1944), the mounting holes are not present.
Historical context
The first aid kit mounting bracket was introduced from June 1944 on MB and GPW jeeps as standard equipment, although many older jeeps were never retrofitted. In practice, motorpool sergeants often relocated the kit to the rear of the passenger seat for better accessibility in combat situations.
