Features

  • Set of 4 bolts for battery tray mounting
  • Featuring authentic F script marking
  • Suitable for mounting to frame and engine support
  • Representative of Ford GPW production
  • Essential component for correct restoration

★ Ford marked virtually every component of the GPW with their elegant script-F, even the smallest bolts and nuts. This reproduction bolt set bears the same characteristic marking and is indispensable for an authentic Ford GPW restoration.

Application

Mounting of the battery tray to the frame of the Ford GPW. The battery tray is secured at four points: two to the engine support and two to the frame. Suitable for Ford GPW produced between 1941-1945.

Installation notes

The battery tray is mounted with four fixing points. Some original GPWs had captive nuts (welded nuts) on the engine support and front crossmember. Check your frame beforehand. Thread size 5/16-18 NC is common for GPW battery tray mounting (early productions sometimes used 5/16-24 NF). For correct installation, the battery tray should be securely fastened to prevent vibrations.

Compatibility

Specifically developed for Ford GPW (1941-1945). The Ford GPW used the GPW-type frame from mid-1942 onwards. Early 1942 Ford GPWs on a Willys frame may have different mounting points. Not suitable for Willys MB, which used unmarked or W-marked bolts.

Historical context

Ford produced the GPW under licence from Willys during WWII, but as a condition marked virtually every component with their own script-F stamp to distinguish their production. Even the smallest bolts bore this characteristic Ford marking, which today is essential for authentic restorations.
