Hi i need to fit some fans to the front or rear of the rad on my 86 RR V8 i auto with the aircon removed, i would like to fit kenlowes but i cant aford them really, i was wondering if i could source something from a scrap yard, the RR is purely for off raod & not road legal, What would you guys recommend?

Hi, i've got a pair fitted to my truck from a citreon zx, just trimed the 'cage' they are in so they fit snug between the rad & winch,

Lots of potential scrap yard fans available. Have a look at these threads for some options.

What about the ones from the rangies air con?
-
If it had twin fans at the front of the rad for the aircon these will be sufficent to cool the engine witout the viscous fan.
-
Try and find a diesel turbo montego, they have a twin set that is a fantastically cheep option, approximately 30amps between them so not that far off the Kenlow heavy duty. We were going to fit them and went with the Kenlow in the end.

Thre is some canny ones on EBLAG at the mo

yup I just got some Kenlowes of eblag for £75 :)
-
how about a single 12 inch fan mounted to the front of the rad operated by a switch in the cab, would this be a good enough replacement for the viscous fan, bearing in mind all this rangie those is low box high revs, what do ya think??
