***1926 Fan Assembly (Early)***

Post by VowellArt » Mon Apr 29, 2019 3:13 am

From what I could find, seems this assembly was only used for 6 months in 1926, then they went back to the shorter hub and the later style of bracket, with a flanged eccentric and an eccentric plate.

The only thing I'm not real clear on is the longer hub vs the shorter one...every one of the early 26's I've seen has the shorter one, but I suppose they may have changed out the longer one for the shorter one when they got a thicker radiator...anyhoo, let me know if this one is correct or not, thanks.

I believe the longer fan hub was used when Ford introduced the 2 row radiator thus placing the fan closer to the core - not sure when that happened but I can check my parts lists.
