In need of a Fan Motor

Can someone steer me in the right direction for a OEM fan motor??? The dealer is asking list price which is over $300, I've been told I can find one cheaper then $200.

Anyone?!?!?!?!?!?


Thanks

WHy not use the Ramchargers dual fan setup?

$79.99 and a HELL of a lot better than the stock fan.

That's perfect, I think I'll go that route!!!

SuperSix, are you using the fan setup now? If so, did you wire it in to the factory harness or run off the toggle switch??

Thanks again,

CJ

To answer your question... you will need the adaptor to make it a plug-n-play system. I got mine when they had the free adaptor special. With my front mount I couldn't mount it very well. I ended up stuffing it down between one of the pipes and the radiator. I used a few tie straps to hold the top on. In high 80s weather my temps stay around 180 or so with a 160 thermostat. Remember this is with a front mount and while idling. It is a very good deal!

I got the Ramchargers factory fan adapter, and use the factory wiring. It has toasted a few relays, I would recommend the Ractronix dual-fan harness upgrade.
