Installation notes
The cover is mounted with hinge at the top and lock mechanism at the bottom. There are two tool boxes per vehicle (left and right rear), so two lids required for complete restoration.
Compatibility
Note: Willys MB vehicles use a flat lid, Ford GPW vehicles had a lid with ribbing/embossing (GPW-1146100). On composite bodies (from November 1943 onwards), the correct version depends on the final assembly manufacturer. Check your original lid to determine the appropriate version.
Historical context
During WWII, Willys and Ford produced identical jeeps with minor detail differences. One of the recognisable differences was the tool box lid: Willys used a flat version, Ford a lid with relief.
