2/79 radiator splash shield

[JasonH]

Try this. There's just no good way to take a picture of that thing. This is also a 2/79.

i dont run one anymore, but the one in the pic i believe is flipped, the diff needs the bump up in the factory setup. maybe its just too late, and im too tired.


You run SOA, 40s or bigger? no uptravel in that pic! sitting level.

Thanks for the post and feedback guys! It appears what I have is not what is in your picture IH^C. Too bad, I bought it from TLC via ebay last spring. It's in good shape with powdercoating. The search begins again...

Cheers,

Dave

Actually, the splash pan you refer to uses 3 mounting bolts along the front radiator cross member and two each down the side -- it doesn't have two mounting tabs at the front - I bought one of those and it is for the wrong year. Attached are a few photos of completed underside -- not easy to see the pan but I have some of it before installing and painting it that I can email you as they are too large to post on this board. Also you should have some "big holes" in the pan that allow you to access the radiator drain, etc. These splash pans seem hard to find as you can expect that are ripe for rust and are fairly thin metal.

Took some other pics that show it all a bit better - hope this helps.
