Vehicle

Ford GPW 1941-1945

Set contents

4 pieces (2× upper, 2× lower)

Marking

Ford 'F' script

Features

  • Complete set for one vehicle
  • 2 upper reinforcement plates (driver's and passenger's side)
  • 2 lower reinforcement plates (driver's and passenger's side)
  • Featuring correct Ford 'F'-marking
  • Securely connects front bumper to chassis frame

★ High-quality reproduction according to original OEM specifications, manufactured using modern laser cutting and pressing technology for precise fitment.

Application

Specific to Ford GPW models built between 1941-1945. These reinforcement plates are essential for the structural attachment of the front bumper to the frame and bear the characteristic Ford 'F'-marking.

Installation notes

The set consists of two upper and two lower gussets that are mounted symmetrically left and right. First mount the lower reinforcement plates to the frame, then the upper ones. Check the fitment before final bolting. These plates form the crucial connection between bumper and frame.

Compatibility

Only suitable for Ford GPW. Not compatible with Willys MB (which feature W-marking instead of F-marking). The shape and mounting points are identical between MB and GPW, but the correct marking is essential for an authentic restoration.

Historical context

During WWII, Ford produced the GPW as a licensed version of the Willys MB. All Ford parts bore the characteristic 'F'-marking to distinguish them from Willys production with 'W'-marking.
