Features

★ Replacement to original Willys-Overland specification. Ensure that all brake hose lines are correctly clipped to prevent movement during braking.
Installation notes
Attach the clip to the chassis frame or front axle housing where the flexible brake hose connects. The clip clamps around the female fitting end of the hose. Ensure that the hose is not under tension and has sufficient clearance for suspension movement of the axle.
Compatibility
Universal for virtually all variants with flexible brake hoses. Fits the standard rubber brake hose lines of MB/GPW (6" front wheel cylinder hose) and comparable CJ and M38 versions. Do check that you have the correct number of clips - usually 3 to 4 per vehicle depending on configuration (front and possibly rear).
Historical context
These type of clips were originally produced by Weatherhead with stamped logo until approximately 2010. The design is a classic solution for securing flexible brake hose lines without restricting freedom of movement.
