What is the best fan clutch for the 2005 Dakota with the 4.7L? I've been having cooling problems for a while and I've taken care of them mostly. I refurbished my entire cooling system and installed a four seasons fan clutch and it doesn't like to engage until around 230 degrees. After it engages the temps drop like a rock, so the rest of the system seems to be working great. This is only really an issue while I'm idling; while I'm moving there's enough air rushing by to take care of the temps. So clearly the current clutch isn't working out and I'm getting ready to return it. I've considered electric fans and I've done my research on that, but I'd like to try a better clutch before I make that leap. If the best is truly Mopar would anyone care to provide a link to buy the correct clutch online? My nearest dealer is selling them for nearly 3x the prices I see at some online retailers and I'd like to save the money if possible, but the low prices online also have me suspicious as to wether they're genuine.

TLDR, where online can I get the best price for a properly functioning fan clutch for a 4.7l 05 Dakota? Mopar or third party doesn't matter as long as it works correctly, I'm open to suggestions. If Mopar is the only way to go, where are the best prices?

 

Dump it and get one that is just like stock(mopar) as long as it works in the traditional way it should be fine. with spring and friction. 4 seasons is more temp operated and obviously that doesn't work in this situation.any decent brand should work good enough

 

The stock one was also a temperature clutch. As are all other fan clutches I've found available for the truck. Are any of the online Mopar parts dealers trustworthy? I've tracked down stock clutches at moparpartsgiant.com, but I can't for the life of me find any info confirming the legitimacy of that site.
