Default Reversible electric fans

Which electric fans for swap are reversible. I need a pusher, so any help appreciated. I am hoping the Intrepid system is reversible, but I am unsure.

On my mud truck I had to rig up a bracket for my pusher fan, wasn't too hard, just bought a standard bracket at Home Depot and a few nuts and bolts. Just remember that if you reverse the polarity of dc motors, it will spin in the opposite direction. That means that if you can only install your new fan backwards, just flip the black wire to the red, and the fan will reverse direction.

And don't forget you have to flip the fan over. To keep the fan orientation correct.

Most universal fans are revisable. Very easy.
