Features
- Diameter 31 mm
- For reinforced intermediate gear shaft
- Lateral positioning intermediate gear
- Application from M201 chassis 1056
- Essential transfer case component
★ Specific component for late M201 production with technical modifications to the transfer case.
Application
Suitable for Hotchkiss M201 jeeps from chassis number 1056 onwards, when Hotchkiss changed to a reinforced shaft construction for the intermediate gear in the transfer case. Used in combination with needle bearing and corresponding thrust washers (2 pieces required per assembly).
Installation notes
This axial washer must be fitted on both sides of the intermediate gear on the reinforced shaft. Use two washers per assembly. Ensure correct positioning to guarantee proper axial clearance. Check condition of needle bearing and shaft during assembly.
Compatibility
Only suitable for M201 with reinforced intermediate gear shaft (from chassis 1056 onwards). NOT compatible with earlier M201 production or with Willys MB/Ford GPW which have a different transfer case construction. Early M201 vehicles (before chassis 1056) use a different shaft diameter and require different components.
Historical context
Hotchkiss improved the M201 transfer case during production, changing around chassis number 1056 to a reinforced shaft construction with 31 mm diameter for increased durability under demanding military conditions.
