Installation notes
This frame is mounted in the left rear wheelhousing and serves as mounting structure for the tool box lid. Ford GPW bodies are recognisable by the rectangular depression around the lock, as opposed to the round recess on Willys MB.
Compatibility
Fits ONLY on Ford GPW bodies (1941-1945). NOT compatible with Willys MB bodies (which have a different frame design with round lock depression) or ACM composite bodies. Check before fitting that your body has the Ford-specific rectangular lock recess.
Historical context
Ford GPW vehicles had specific body characteristics that differed from Willys MB, including ribbed tool box lids and rectangular lock depressions in the rear wheelhousings. These components were produced between 1941 and 1945.
