The ring looks like a large washer, Does any one have any measurements for it?

  I think the MB/GPW had a ring. CJ2-A does not.

Thanks for the reply's, I had seen the ring in several pictures and it's listed in different parts catalog's. I see the ring and gasket are listed for the MB/GPW and only the ring under the 2a It looks simple enough, I just can't see 35 bucks for a washer with extra holes.

  I have 5 CJ2-A’s and a CJ3B. None of them have a ring. I have worked on numerous CJ2-A’s for othes and none have had a ring. The official parts list does not show a ring for the CJ2-A or the CJ3A. I don’t care what Kaiser-Willys says. Their catalog is NOT a reliable source of information regarding parts applications. You do not need a ring.
