I got the frame number directly off of the jeep just in front of the drivers side shock absorber. I got the serial number and other information from the original glove box data plate. I got the rest of the info at the internet links below: http://www.surplusjeep.com/MB-GPW/mb-gpw_lead_page.htm...

Sent some more pictures of the half doors on the jeep. Make me an offer and we can see if we can get these to you. I am selling them as I will not be using them. I got the following info after looking up the original glove data plate and frame numbers found on this jeep Frame number...

Thanks to all who responded. The information you all provided was really helpful.

Thanks a bunch Clinto... Regards, Gordon

There is no spacer there upon inspection. However, the attachment holes seem out of skew as though the column was mounted a bit higher to the floor board.

Steering Column pictures Here are the pictures I said I would post. The steering gear box has the exhaust manifold touching it as shown in the attached pictures. Also, does the "S" represent a replacement Saginaw steering gear as you described earlier?

The photo is from a finished restored 1942 jeep and not the 1943 jeep that I am working on at the current time. I used that photo to show where I needed the measurement. Sorry, my error for not making that clear in the original posting.

I sort of kind of had the same idea that you fellows have and thought maybe I should measure my own rotundness first. I thought, if the steering column is the right height...there must have been some really slim G.I.'s around in 1943. Then I tried to put on the jacket of my Army Dress...

Can anyone provide me with the distance shown by the red line in the photo (bottom of steering wheel to top of seat frame bottom). I believe the jeep I am restoring has had the steering column moved as I have to stuff myself in to get into the drivers seat with a 1" bottom cushion. Or, my beer...
