 Posted: Wed Feb 08, 2017 9:31 pm Post subject: M38 bracket pivot - grooved support on cowl |
 |
|
My M38 does not have a grooved support where the windshield bracket pivot has to fit in. (as per example picture above )
I am almost shure that small grooved rectangle comes bonded to the side panel.
But... almost is not 100% ..
Where do I find that two parts ( one on each side ) ? is it welded ? does it have a proper name ?
Thanks if a blessed soul can help me.

Many thanks, Wes.
I will try to get a TO part so the serration matches with the pivot bracket original pattern .
Once again,
Thanks

Good stuff learning something new every day.......mine are missing too. I'm guessing their purpose has something to do with reinforcing metal and/or the proper spread or bearing of the windshields' arms on the pivots?
Never seen any NOS advertised. Are the dimensions for these serrated plates 673554 available for local fabrication? <asking Brian to get them before shipping> I'll probably incur the wrath of Khan by asking instead of in the wanted forum, but are there any ready-made sources besides $30 all the way from India? <meaning I'd rather keep my coinage in the U.S.A. --- and hoping G740 says he can make some a heck of a lot better and cheaper than I can>

Hi Ron,
I already wrapped these up or I'd measure them for you. They are rectangular
and as per the photo Wes posted virtually the same dimensions as the hinge
brackets except they have square edges. Holes are threaded 5/16-18 and you
could use the hinge brackets and center the holes, or just use the holes in the cowl. They have grooves cut into them to help grip the hinge bracket.
I'm betting Midwest Military, AJP, Brent Mullins and/or Quarter Ton Military have some. Some of the easy parts to get off terminally ill tubs.
They are absolutely essential.
Take care,
