The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Engine side splash pans, were there any in 41-46?

My ’41 had them on both sides. Initially I thought they were 1 inch thick. When all of the grease, caked oil, and road gravel was removed they turned out to be about 16 ga. sheet metal. They were FUBAR being so bent and rotted away they went into the trash.

At the back the pans were mounted to brackets extending inward from the frame at the point where the bellhousing starts. (On the drivers side the clutch return spring also is attached to this bracket.) At the front there were holes directly in the front engine crossmamber.
