1939 splash pans

[coxswain98]

Can someone show me where these get installed? Is there a diagram that I can't find?

Thanks

LHD 1940 Ford V8 Engine Splash Pan. Notice that part has been removed? That is because the "owner" was too lazy to remove the Pitman Arm which goes through this Hole. He merely removed a piece to save the extra work.

Note the pans' relative location next to either side of the engine oil pan itself. Driver side pan will likely require removal of Pitman arm to install pan. DD

As has been noted, your left pan was "modified" quite extensively. This is very common as many folks didn't care to remove the pitman arm, to remove this pan properly.
One attachment point is gone from that pan. Either rusted away or broken off.
V8Coopman's illustration should help you a lot in figuring out where these install. Three 1/4 - 20 screws were required per pan. Note that one of these (per pan) threaded holes is in the cross member, the remaining two (per pan) on the outer frame rail.
I have included a photo of what your pans should appear like.

I happen to have a NOS or NORS driver's side splash pan for a 39-40 if you are interested. It is complete and uncut. Lawson [email protected]

This picture shows a couple of pans in place. DD

The right hand splash pan I have appears to fit best attaching to the bottom of the front crossmember and the bottom of the frame rail. There are three attachment holes for the RH pan and there is an anti-squeak pad on the front hole where it would attach to the bottom of the crossmember. The pictures shown are on a 1937 car.

As I'd stated earlier, there are three attachment points per pan. Also, there is a piece of anti-squeak material between the pan and each adjacent attaching point

coxswain98: I believe the RH pan your showing in your posting #1 is not 39. IMO it is 41 or later.
