This diagram should be easier to understand. And yes, I missed a fuse going to the toggle- It'll share the fused lead going to the switch for my HID's.

red, blue, and black are 10 gauge. Yellow is 18 gauge.

So all of that should help people with the 2 speed taurus fans and rare 2 speed Mark8 fans...but alas, I did end up with a single speed unit. So that negates all of the above. Gonna negate all of the above down to 1 70 amp relay...talking to hemifever about just using the stock E-condensor fan connections to drive the Mk8 fan thru the 70 amp relay.

 

Yeah I don't see why not.. probably in your case the way to go.. just make sure you have a good shroud to get the most out of the fan.

 

on the mark8, the fan and shroud is one giant 1-piece unit. I'll have to trim it some for the overflow bottles and such, but I'm gonna try to keep as much as I can of it. I already know how I think i'm gonna mount it using the stock Ford mounting system even.

 

It's been quite a while; you ever get it done and how has she done; the Jeep fan worked really well for me even on the hottest of hot days..

Right now I'm running the Fan Clutch again just cus I've been towing the hell out of my boat back and forth to the lake and doing alot of off-roading in my truck with deep water; dont want to fry the electric motor or anything.. (Just cautious i guess)

 

I've scrapped the idea of a secondary Aux Fan.. Don't really know what i was thinking there really is no room.

Next on my fan project is to either
A. build a custom shroud
B. (SOMEHOW) engineer the factory shroud to seal the gap between the fan and the shroud to get that real vacum effect going on, I've been kicking around ideas but I really like the idea of building something. I dont have access to a welder for metal or tig for alumin. so i might just have a local shop build something for me..

Reserve rest of post for future edit*.

 

could have sworn I had finished this thread. I had to replace the junkyard motor with one off rockauto, but it's been good ever since. gets the radiator from 190 to 174 in about 8 minutes with engine off. I bump it around on the starter to circulate the water, but trying to get the time to get a W/P & P/S delete belt and put the cog belt on my electric water pump drive (and wire the motor to ignition on)

 

I dont have the room between the rad and motor for either of those having the 5.2L with out swapping the newer model rad and condenser..

I never finished this project with the liberty fan so the thread is still a living thread for me anyways.. I think she did really well during that drought we had the past couple of years but she can do better with a real shroud.. and then finally putting a controller on her.

 

are the rad/condensor set back on the older trucks? Granted I have a V6 with tons of room, seems to me you should be able to fit the mark 8 fan.

 

the older one's like mine; the rad is mounted to the inside of the cross bar vs the newer one's is mounted under it more forward and closer together with the condenser, having the overflow mounted to the plastic fan shroud assembly..

Last time i checked there was not enough room between the engine and the fan motor and assembly actually not even enough room for it to fit between the motor and the radiator.

But yeah I like the idea of just mounting the fan like you have in your other post.. hell i even see Rock Auto sales the same replacement fan under the 95' Thunderbird which used the same fan..

Its really crazy looking back through my posts and looking at some of the things i was talking about and feeling; it was during a heat wave drought and she still did very good... The liberty fan did a good job; mounted to the stock shroud the way i had it; but if i seal up that gap or build something better so it can really get a good air flow pulling i think it can do better having better efficiency... it is just another option for people to have to pick from and honestly i wanted originally to keep it to something someone like me can just run down and build their self with out paying someone.. but we can build it better.. why stop at simply mounting it to the shroud

I'm kicking around an idea to build out of sheet metal or something along those lines I'm drawing up the plans now actually in preparation thinking about how I'm going to do this the simplest way possible not having any way to cut or weld... only using scres, nuts, bolts. Many have done it i just got to think about it plan it and do it
