Hello!

Thanks for letting me join.  My main interest in jeeps are the wartime jeeps and early CJ2a's.  I own a 43 GPW and 45 MB.  But my other interest (and business) is making seat for all kinds of jeeps, specializing in making original seat springs.  That is what led me to this forum as I'm looking for information on seat springs, especially the tall back rear seat.

Always looking for original seat springs and seat covers too!

Thanks,

Nick

Welcome!

I've seen limited information on the springs (mostly earlier jeeps).  Some have built their own from rusted originals.   

This sounds interesting.

I really enjoy it and it is something different as there was no suppliers in the US for the WWII jeep springs.  The early CJs are very similar to the war time jeeps and the M38/M38A1 shared the same spring design for front and rear seat (short back similar to the WWII and CJ2A rear seats)  The later tall back rear seat is completely different and not much info on the 'fill' material for these. Always up to the task to learn new stuff!
