More or less:
1.) take the stock fan and fan clutch off
2.) use mounting hardware included with fan (or fans) to mount them in front of radiator
3.) Hook up electricity to a power/ground and then you can use a thermostat that you put in the engine oil or coolant to trigger the fan to turn on and off.
-You would have to run that thermostat through a standard relay to send the power to the fans through a nice fat wire as opposed to the 20 gauge wire that will be coming from the thermostat/sensor


While researching to answer this: i ran across this site which answers it way better than I can
