★ Authentic reproduction with correctly marked fixings as applied to Ford GPW jeeps during WWII.
Application
Specifically for Ford GPW jeeps with 8- and 9-leaf spring packs (early to mid production). The F-marking was characteristic of Ford-produced parts and fixings, with the cursive 'F' script stamped into the bolt head.
Installation notes
Set contains all U-bolts and nuts for securing the leaf springs to front and rear axles. Observe correct thread direction and torque during assembly. U-bolts must not be reused after removal due to possible stretching or material fatigue.
Compatibility
Designed for Ford GPW with 8-leaf front springs and 9-leaf rear springs as applied during early to mid production. Not suitable for late production with 10- or 11-leaf spring packs. The F-marked hardware is specific to Ford GPW — Willys MB used different marking (W or EC).
Historical context
Ford produced the GPW under licence from Willys-Overland and marked virtually all fixings with the characteristic cursive 'F' script to distinguish Ford parts from Willys MB components.
