Application
Suitable for Willys MB, Ford GPW (1941-1945), CJ-2A (1945-1949), CJ-3A (1949-1953), CJ-3B (1953-1964), M38 (1950-1952), M38A1 (1952-1966) and compatible trailers. This right-hand thread kit is used at specific mounting positions — per vehicle, typically 2 right-hand thread and 2 left-hand thread shackle kits are required (total 4).
Installation notes
Note: each vehicle uses both left-hand thread (802061) and right-hand thread (802062) shackle kits — check which thread direction you require per mounting location. The shackle spring has a specific twist that must be fitted correctly. Lubricate all grease nipples after installation. Tighten bolt connections according to manufacturer specifications.
Compatibility
Right-hand thread design — NOT universally interchangeable with left-hand thread variants. Originally, most jeeps had both left- and right-hand thread shackle kits at different positions — this prevents loosening during use. Aftermarket sets sometimes have only right-hand thread — verify your specific requirement.
Historical context
The U-bolt shackle construction with sealed bushings was standard on military jeeps from 1941, designed for minimal maintenance in harsh conditions. The combination of left- and right-hand threads at different positions was a considered engineering choice to prevent self-loosening.
