Re: flex a lite fan

the fan would run off of electricity rather than utilize a clutch from the motor as it does now. doing so it would save a bit of hp. hope this helps

Re: flex a lite fan

Are you talking about a Flex-a-lite mechanical or electrical? If you're talking about the mechanical, then that would be a bad idea. They are designed to run without a clutch and are noisy. (Kinda pointless for this application as well.)

you could get a universal from jegs or summit racing. some are easy to install, some are a PITA. the kit I put in my 77 cherokee was uber easy...

Re: flex a lite fan

It depends on what kind you get. If you go all out and get one with a temp sensor and all that it will automatically come on at a preset temp and shut off by itself. They are pretty nice. I had one on my 01 ram. It worked great! Install wasnt too bad either.

Re: flex a lite fan

They usually come with a copper "pod" sensor you mash into the metal fins of the radiator. That tells the control box (roughly) the temp on the coolant. The box controls when the fan comes on and turns off. The fan itself mounts with long screws that you push through the radiator fins in the same manner as the "pod". But they have plastic/metal washers you put on the backside to keep them from being pulled through the radiator.

Re: flex a lite fan

You most likely will need to take measurements of the radiator core and call summit or jegs.

Re: flex a lite fan

Go over to CT. There is a thread on the 295 install over there. You will also find out who has and has not had problems with the 295 kit. You may also want to check out my electric fan conversion kit thread for other ideas. Good luck with the project..
