<broken splash shield> <broken splash shield>





The splash shield is sometimes missing from a jeep. It attaches to the right chassis rail behind the engine bearer, and is a sheet metal plate with a fold along one side and a spot-welded attachment bracket along the front edge.
The plate illustrated here came from a GPW, note the script and GPW near the front bolt holes. The photographs at right show an original yet broken and kinked plate (undercoated).
