I'm not sure if they're floating around anywhere, but I couldn't find them. I don't need one, but I'd like to draw it if I could find original drawings. (I'm an ME/CAD junky)

PNs:
7697441 - support, assy
7697436 - bracket, assy

You are not going to find a lot of original Willys drawings. We have been able to access a few but they are for systems not one individual part. Most of my buddies fluent in CAD just 3D scan the item and produce the drawing. I use their help a lot in the aircraft repair business I run.

I'm no stranger to reverse engineering, but I always like to use original drawings whenever possible. I worked in the aerospace industry for a good while as well, even had my FAA repairman's certificate (AC 65-24) for a time.

I may have it. For the M38?

I have it listed by WO part number, can you give me the part number of the specific part you need - assembly or just the part that the tire attaches to.

Assembly, and yes, for the M38. I don't have the WO part numbers in front of me right now, but I can try to find it later.

Thanks,
Rich

Any of these would help:

WO-673344 Bracket, support, spare wheel, assy
WO-673420 Support, spare wheel, assy
WO-643473 Spacer, tailgate panel to spare wheel support
WO-673349 Plate, spare wheel support and reflector retainer
WO-663399 Filler, spare wheel carrier (wood)
WO-673773 Bracket, vibration dampener, spare wheel
WO-674915 Bracket, spare wheel carrier (welded - welds to right body side panel)

While they're likely unobtainium, I'd love to find drawings of the actual body panels, tub, frame, etc. It'd be super cool to create 3D models and blueprints of the entire jeep...

The drawings I have stop just before the 673000 and up range.

More drawings need to be scanned it just takes time, I bought the large format scanners, but it is time consuming to find blue prints and then scan - Time and money.

I actually have to drop a bunch of drawings off to get scanned for work tomorrow. I had a heck of a time finding someone that can handle A3 prints. Found a local construction company that can do it for $1.25/sheet. We've got hundreds to scan, but it's still cheaper than what those scanners cost.
