    Hello All,

    I was wondering if one kind soul might post pictures of your rad fan mounting bracket and electric fan arrangement.

    Apparently these brackets, (which I need) are difficult to find so I need to fab a set.

    thanks in advance for the help

    No fabrication necessary. I purchased new fans (Lucas type) and reproduction mounts from XKs Unlimited in California (Jaguar parts supplier). They make the mounts, are reasonably priced (you really couldn't make them for that much), were identical to the original ones on my GT4 and are supplied by XKs in bare steel. Just paint everything up to keep it all from rusting and you'll be fine... See parts #22 and 23:

    I haven't said this to a man I don't know..."I love you". (from afar)

    Peter, Thank you for posting. These brackets apparently are shared with some very expensive cars and thusly are priced accordingly, like $350 each , used.

    seriously, I was beginning to wonder if I was going to get a solution on how to resolve/solve this...thanks

    Grazie Mille.

    No problem. I did ALOT of searching, but it was a visit to a local, independant Jaguar shop which really shed the full light on these things. He kindly took the time to show me his stack of old parts and told me of this XKs Unlimited place, which is where he gets all of his stuff for his customer's cars.
