My parts arrived today, very fast shipping! Suffice to say these parts look excellent! The originals are indeed brass, they look black from age or possibly chemical treatment at the factory to enhance the camouflage aspect of the Jeep. I won’t install these for a few months but based on their appearance they should be fine. The originals that I removed from a '45 GPW tub are the four darker pieces. You can see the brass shining through the dull surface on one where it was scratched. The new ones are the shiny parts. Excellent work!

I finally installed these. I damaged one but used the extra one that was sent so all is well! Thanks again!

I thought I dropped it in the scrap brass bucket but couldn't find it in there. I'll look around, it might still be on the work bench. One of the four "petals" came undone from under the circular lip. I'm sure it occasionally happened at the factory in 1944 too. I tried to put it back together but when I realized I had an extra one I just used that one instead. It's a quality product and I have no complaints, just reporting how it went. I think that I could have repaired it but since I received 15 and only needed 14 I just used the extra one. If I do find it I'll post a picture.

Hi, not making a comment on the quality of these sockets, just trying to show that even the original one's fell out.
In this photo you can see that one has fallen out and the GPW isn't that old, and there are plenty of original ww2 photos showing them out.

Cheers
Gary

this all depends on how they were installed. if they used the tool properly and punch it in, the socket expands on the inside and locks it in place.
