This is a new very correct and US Made rear seat hook. These are for the M38A1 military jeeps.  These are what hold the back rest of your rear seat to the rear panel of the jeep. These keep the back rest from flopping down when on rough terrain. They also aid in the stowage process of your rear seat. These only fit the M38A1. These are shorter than the M38 hooks and longer than the WWII hooks.  This is a great item for your restoration. QTM

NOTE! These will not fit the MB, GPW, or M38. These come in the raw and will need to be painted.
