Default Re: Side curtain pan iastallation

Let me clarify the question I have.


Does the curtain pan drop in from above or is it attached to the underside of the sub rail and cross channel bottom flange?


I purchased a reproduction curtain pan from Brookville.


As it is currently made, it will not sit down onto the bottom flange of subrails and cross channel without a little trimming at the rear corners of the pan.

It will fit under the lower flange of the subrails and cross channels but I do not think this is correct. This would mean that the pan would be placed from below up against the flange of the sub rails and cross channels and riveted in place. This does not seem correct but it would work.


I think the pan should drop in place from above and the front and sides of the pan would rest down against the flange of the sub rails and the cross channel. The rivets would go in from above thru the pan then thru the flange and staked from the underside of the body.


I have been looking for a good picture or other information but can not find it.


Any help would be appreciated.
