Extra fan mod and lower temp fan switch &thermostat

[Nastee]

It just shows how to mount the fan to the radiator, did you soder your wires together or crimp them

just crimp together no need for soder.

Take you time if you can strip a few wires/crimp connectors & play with fan placement you will see what little they are overcharging you for. You will know it is done right to not just them saying so! You are going to take your time they are probably going to rush through take the $ then next job as quick as possible to make money. Unless you have someone you trust.

Okay looked at fan wire when came home i used wire clamps that you don't have to cut OE fan wire. They penetrate rubber coating cut off 2nd fan fitting it goes in other end of clamp close clamp that's it. Pic is not great but gives idea.

Is it really that easy

Sorry been up all night/day. Need 2 of these clamps that open like a book. 1 for + the 2nd for - of wire being spliced into. The add on wire + is placed in other closed side of clamp then close clamp which locks do same to negative wires.

Those would be called "scotch locks", and they are basically junk, sorry to tell you. Cutting a wiring mid run is not a great idea in the first place, and second, they are very prone to oxidation, so while everything is fine now, down the road should your setup become temperamental, you would check these connections first. Posi taps would have been a better choice. Unfortunately, most vendors supply crappy scotch locks with anything electrical . . .

Just an up date on the fan mod its working like a charm the 2nd fan moves alot of air no more overheating issues in rush hour or stop and go traffic

Update

Just an up date on the fan mod its working like a charm the 2nd fan moves alot of air no more overheating issues in rush hour or stop and go traffic

Update fan mod is still working great no issues

 

[Bigpopa64]

Check the directions from Shintz to see if you can do. I bought same fan that moves alot of air. My biggest problem was that i tried to use 90 clamps & didn't have fan mounted wide enough to clear & had to get another plastic securing kit as i couldn't salvage 1 of the 4 during remount. If you can push securing plastic rods through radiator fins push on round back snip off extra; splice wire with two round tube connectors replace fuse on left front of gen1 then put bolts back in radiator then yeah that easy. I did not disconnect any lines from radiator or coolant system waste of time.

Thanks for your help on this
