Top work! 8-) 8-)

So, Lee, have you ordered all those Challenger fans yet? :P :lol:

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

Maybe then we can remove the piece of shite viscous fan

Ok the fan is $309.32 inc tax, has to be ordered from Sydney

relay is $24.20

NOW i do not know if just by adding the relay and fan if it would work,

maybe someone needs to try it first???? any takers???

Is there a Spec on What temperature it comes on at Lee?
I probably have the right relay at my Workshop i could throw it in and test when the Feed for the Fan comes on. I'm pretty sure there is already a fused Power Feed to The Relay.

No Idea Newguy, I am not sure if it related to the Air con operation possibly, Maybe it is there to operate when ac turns on and off,

trying to find a challenger to see what its used for,

I'm game to give it a try. That price is about what a similar fan for the MK is listed for on ebay at the moment - although I only took a 30 second look.

All good, I'm in NZ. But I can see this being an advantage to anyone here in the heat.

Does the fan go on the inter cooler ? Because if you've got a winch it will want to be a very small fan, I had a fan on my inter cooler and had to remove it because it was rubbing on the winch rope , and it was a very slim fan , been looking for a slimmer one but haven't found a suitable on yet,

The photos above have it sitting in the top right corner as you face the front. My intercooler (MN) sits bottom left. So no, not on the intercooler.

No, not the intercooler BUT (heading a little off topic) why not look for a fan which pulls the air instead of pushing it....my intercooler doesn't have room in front of it due to the winch but there is plenty of room behind it from memory ;)
I'm not so good with the advice :oops: ... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment??? :twisted:

And your point is?? :-P :lol: :lol:


Ag, I figured that but sometimes the mounts may not work like that so didn't want to say it. ;-)
