Cross shaft Attaching Bracket
Bought a 1953 M38A1 that uses a 'cross shaft attaching bracket' in place of the clutch control lever assembly found on the MB. Is this bracket a field fix or was it part of the A1 change?
Any information would be appreciated.

Re: Cross shaft Attaching Bracket
MB, M-38, M-38A1 all have a cross shaft, it attaches to the Frame with an A-180 Bracket that is "U" shaped and a A-180 Ball on either end of the shaft. The A-180 ball will wear lopsided. The Bracket and ball is also available as a an assembly with Part number A-179. Discuss it with Ron.
There are two A-176 Felt Pads, A-177 Control tube spring Retainers, and A-178 Control Tube Spring. Cory will know what these are.

The above link provides a picture of what's on the Jeep now. Nothing like the MB arrangement. Ron doesn't show it yet it's advertised as a direct replacement by others. Do you have any idea what the history is here?
Thanks.

Re: Cross shaft Attaching Bracket
Not a Mod., it's OEM to MC/MD/MDA Jeep.
It's called a "Retainer" which was 645086 on CJ-3A, CJ-5, and riveted to the frame. This is an improvement and was used on M-38, M-38A1, and M-170. and bolts on with 3/8" NF Bolts. It is for the A-495 Cross shaft for the Brake and Clutch pedals, Buy it, it will eliminate side play on the pedals. All the dealers recognize this as 801662, BRACKET, shaft retainer, w/bushings assy.

Re: Cross shaft Attaching Bracket
At the least you will have factory tight brake and clutch pedals, there is nothing more annoying than floppy pedals or more impressive than that factory feel.

One more question: do you know of a source for the brake pedal assembly (WO800527) bushing; it's not shown or listed in ORD 9 SNL-G758.
Your help is appreciated.

Re: Cross shaft Attaching Bracket
800527 is in Group 12-06 of the ORD 9, there are two other Optional Pedals also listed, 647634 and 647635. 800527 is the one to chaes down at the dealers, it fits CJ-3A, CJ-3B, CJ-5 and the M-38/M-48A1. I have NOS 800527 but it is in my spares. 800527 has been the only one listed from the factory since 1956.

Willys has a note in 1956factory parts list to "mix" the earlier Part numbered pedals with the newer 800527.
