Regarding the slave cable bracket, I am not sure it was the same as used on the M38. The m38 mounted with 4 bolts, but because of the raised seam of the M38A1 fender, the bracket for it mounts with only 2 bolts. I tried to look up the part but none of my modification instructions detail that bracket, including the installation instructions for the recoiless rifle kit in the M38A1s. It is not mentioned in the re-location instruction for the spare tire mount either, which is what blocks the slave cable in it's old location.

Perhaps someone with a recoiless Jeep can show a photo of the bracket. There is an unaltered recoiless jeep at the local milsurp yard, but it is covered tightly with a tarp.
