Re: fan pulley on 48 generator??
The shaft on the 36 generator is smaller, the pulley slips on and is held by a lock washer and nut. The 48 generator has a larger threaded shaft and the pulley screws on. I believe the 39 truck had the pulley you will need. G.M.

Re: fan pulley on 48 generator??
In order to put a fan onto a '48 generator you would need a '39 pulley, in lieu of trying to do this, you could just use a '39 generator.... Very hard item to find.. The '39 generators are 2 brush, higher amps, in lieu of 3 brush like the earlier generators.. The '39's came with a voltage regulator, like the '40 and later, in lieu of a "cut-out" like the earlier gen's.

Re: fan pulley on 48 generator??
The '39 generator with the fan mount was used on standard vehicles and trucks only.
The '39 deluxe had a crank mounted fan. Lots of standards and trucks in '39 used the 3 brush generator and and cutout, I guess Henry was using up left overs. I have some fan mount '39 pulleys and a '39 standard 2 brush generator with the fan on it. Having blabbed all that I think the '48 is a better unit. I've added an adapter to the later pulleys to mount the fan....any decent machine shop should be capable of doing this. Charlie ny |

Re: fan pulley on 48 generator??
Offenhauser is the one who makes the pulley with hub and threaded holes for the Ford fan. Cost is about $50.00. I said it was aluminum but it may be steel. G.M.
