Well I need to do something about my mechanical fan before it kills my RD radiator especially since 2/3 of my front end body bolds are missing and I am super prone to body flex coupled with my super badass motor. Smile

Go to a pull you own junk yard...it was real easy to get it...4 bolts on some bracket right on top...1 bolt on the fan shourd...and another bolt that slides out the side when you loosen it and BAM...94-95 Taurus with a 3.8L...:biggthumpup:

Thats if you can get away for a couple hours with nothing but your Bronco on you mind!!!:hysterical:

Summit racing has ones that will fit for about the same money.
There is one cheap upgrade anybody can do. Grab a peice of expanded sheet metal, cut it the same size as the tubing section of the radiator. Now make some brackets that will hold it in place, if your using a fan shoud place it betwen them.
I have had it one for years and it also will keep the fan from sucking the radiator into the fan in deep water crossings.

no I meant another solution like protecting the radiator.

I spend a crapload of $$$ doing the explorer serp conversion the benefits of which included the high flow mechanical fan.
