Just looking to see if anyone has used this kit in there 3rd gen ram.
http://moesperformance.com/index.php...oducts_id=1156
If so, feedback please. It is a Mopar part and dealer said it would not void warranty, so I think I am going to give it a try.
Let me know what you guys think.

 

I was told they are no longer available..

 

Moesperformance shows themoutof stock until May, Mopar shows them in stock and ready to ship....
I guess I will find out here shortly if this is true.

 

I read on another forum that Flex-A-Lite was the oem for the Mopar electric fans, not sure if it's identical to my 180 Extreme, but with both of them listed at 18" and 3300 cfm, it's a good bet they are one and the same.

Would not be surprised as I know their Mopar CAI is made by Brute Force and are identical except for the stickers...

 

and mopar long tubes are same as dynatech..

 

The extreme 180, did that come with everything you needed? Or did you need to purchase anything extra? I want a kit that has a/c bypass relay, manual fan switch, etc. Also does the single fan kit have the capability of running a 2 speed fan or do I need the dual fan kit to accomplish running the high/low speeds of, like a MarkVIII fan? This is becoming a little more difficult than my last e-fan install, but that was on a 14yr old vehicle, but I want to do this right the first time. Thanks for any input/info.

perhaps the official Chrysler electric fan retro-fit kit
for 4.7 v8 Durangos
could be used on the Rams?

GROUP: Heating & A/C

DATE: September 28, 2001

SUBJECT:
Warm air blows from panel outlets with A/C on at idle.

OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves installing an electric cooling fan kit.

MODELS:

1998 - 1999 (DN) Durango

NOTE :THIS BULLETIN APPLIES TO VEHICLES NOT EQUIPPED WITH DAYTIME RUNNING
LAMPS.

SYMPTOM/CONDITION:

Some 1998 - 1999 (DN) Durangos may blow warm air out the instrument panel
outlets while the A/C is ON in conditions of ambient temperatures exceeding
30°C. (86°F.) and the vehicle not in motion. In conditions of "stop-and-go"
traffic or while idling in high ambient temperatures, the A/C high side
pressures may exceed the high-pressure switch shut off of 450 - 490 psi.
causing the A/C compressor to disengage. The compressor will re-engage once
the high side pressure drops below 270 - 330 psi. The root cause of the
problem may be related to inadequate airflow through the A/C condenser in high
ambient temperatures while the vehicle is not in motion.

DIAGNOSIS:

NOTE :THIS PROCEDURE WILL NOT CORRECT A CONDITION WHERE THE A/C COMPRESSOR
DISENGAGES DUE TO EXCESSIVE HIGH SIDE PRESSURE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.
NOR WILL THIS PROCEDURE CORRECT ANY A/C PERFORMANCE COMPLAINT OTHER THAN THE
LOSS OF A/C IN "STOP-AND-GO" TRAFFIC OR IDLE CONDITIONS WHILE IN HIGH AMBIENT
TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY.

Verify A/C system operation by performing an A/C Performance Test. Refer to
the 1999 Durango Service Manual (Publication No. 81-370-9116), pages 24-13
through 24-16. If the vehicle passes the A/C performance test as identified in
the 1999 Durango Service Manual, yet the customer complains that warm air
discharges out the panel ducts with the A/C ON with the vehicle NOT in motion,
install the Electric Cooling Fan Kit. If the vehicle did not pass the
performance test, repair the vehicle as necessary. This procedure WILL NOT be
able to correct the condition.

NOTE DUE TO THE ELECTRICAL LOAD REQUIREMENTS OF THE ELECTRIC COOLING FAN, THE
136 AMP GENERATOR IS REQUIRED ON ALL VEHICLES. SOME 1999 MODELS MAY HAVE THE
136 AMP GENERATOR. 1999 MODELS EQUIPPED WITH TRAILER TOW PACKAGE (SALES CODE
AHC) ARE EQUIPPED WITH THE 136 AMP GENERATOR. TO ENSURE THAT 1999 MODELS ARE
EQUIPPED WITH THE 136 AMP GENERATOR, VERIFY THAT THE PART NUMBER ON THE
GENERATOR IS 56028920AA. ALL MODELS NOT EQUIPPED WITH THE 136 AMP GENERATOR
MUST USE KIT 05019227AB.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:

Detailed instructions are included in the parts kit. Refer to the instructions
for the Repair Procedure.

PARTS REQUIRED: (image, typing this by hand)

05019227AB Kit, Electric Cooling Fan, with 136 Amp Generator

05019253AB Kit, Elecric Cooling Fan, without 136 Amp Generator

 

I got one on my truck. Works great, if I have to do it all over again I would of just went to the junk yard and pull out one from a ford taurus 3.8L for 30 bucks.
