To test whether or not your fan clutch needs to be replaced simply spin your jeep s fan by hand while the engine is cold and if it spins freely 5 rotations or more it will need to be replaced.
Jeep tj fan clutch upgrade.
First i switched out the old fan clutch in my 2004 jeep wrangler.
Fortunately this is a very easy task to do but like any job the right tools can make all the difference.
Tj fan upgrade ford explorer fan fan clutch posted in tech talk.
The thermostat was no good any more.
Zj hd fan clutch spins at 80 90 percent of shaft speed when engaged both standard xj and zj hd fan clutches spin at 30 percent of shaft speed when not.
The jeep was over heating again and i found out why.
Napa 272310 zj hd fan clutch listed for 97 98 years 44 is a perfect fit replacement for the standard xj fan clutch.
I was just reading the update on the vet jeep and i wanted to ask about the ford explorer fan and fan clutch upgrade that was recommended.
Google not giving me any info on it.
Standard xj fan clutch spins at 60 70 percent of shaft speed when engaged.
Install zj fan clutch on the xj.
Also the vet jeep has a nice looking radiator installed.
I was told about 4 0 cooling issues and i am trying to plan ahead.
Because they transfer huge amounts of energy from the engine to the transmission using pressure and friction these parts are not long for this world.
