Cluch fans td42ti and rd28t

[florix]

can you also tell me what this is and do i need it please

[florix]

Out of interest,can you not put an electric fan on there instead,or do you guys prefer the original mechanical type?

That was my thought but I have read of so many cases where it just doesnt cut it, my worry is loss of cooling doing this

Yeah stick with the mechanical fan mate. You can go to twin thermos I space is restricted but I would recommend an alternator upgrade if you go in that direction.

As for the small vacuum switch you pictured this is for your idle control when the a/c is on. You can get away with not having this.

ok thanks. I dont really want to go towards thermos but if i do need to what alternator would you recommend? Sorry but this is my first patrol.

[nissannewby]

I don't know part numbers but something from 120-150A would be good. It's just if you plan to run spotties, thermos, a winch in the future etc and any other accessories the alternator will help your batteries.

Yeah I have three LED Light bars (24inch in the bullbar, 30 inch on the roof and a 8 inch at the back) and a new winch and also a cabin of upgrades too. Maybe even if I dont go thermos I might still upgrade my alternator. Hopefully I can keep the mechanical fan.

You should be able to keep the mechanical if you purchase a new Ti fan assembly. I have a radiator that thick in mine so it certainly fits.

[florix]

Yeah thats it. Yet another part to buy lol

[florix]

got me a new genuine fan. it sits a good 2-3 inches back. I prefer a mechanical one because I have heard so many bad stories of people running thermo fans and having overheating problems

What radiator cap is that? Have never seen one with a lever on it like that.
