★ Note: a separate anti-vibration bracket is required to attach the horn to this firewall bracket — not included.
Application
Ford GPW 1941-1945. Early versions with horn mounted to the firewall. This bracket was used before the horn was relocated to other positions in later production years.
Installation notes
Fitted to the firewall in the engine compartment. Between this bracket and the horn itself, a separate anti-vibration spring bracket must be fitted. Check whether the horn on your vehicle was originally mounted to the firewall.
Compatibility
NOT compatible with Willys MB — the Willys MB variant (part number WO-A1389) has NO additional pressing and is shaped differently. Ford GPW and Willys MB horn brackets are not interchangeable due to design differences.
Historical context
Ford GPW jeeps were produced from 1941 to 1945 with approximately 277,878 units. Although the Ford GPW and Willys MB were largely identical, Ford applied its own production methods with specific pressing details in components such as this horn bracket.
