got a 02 1500 with the 5.9 360 and was pulling a 18ft trailer today and it started to get warm 3/4 on the guage the outside temp was bout 65 or so anyways when i came to a stop i herd the cluth fan kick on and it cooled down quick so dont think the clutch is working propertly its not kicking on when im driving should i put a new clutch on or just put a eletric fan on and if so what size of fan do i need

 

I'm of the belief that whenever you need to repair something, you make it a mod (improve upon whatever part(s) you need to replace.

So I'd put an efan in it. If you are gonna tow, I would make sure I got a fan with at least 3000 cfm or dual fans. I have the Flex-a-Lite 180 Extreme, flows 3300 CFM.


JasonW (2nd Gen Ram owner) just did a very nice setup, dual fans and I believe EACH draws 3000 cfm. Wasn't cheap, but was a great mod...

Look at posts 13 & 15:

+1 on going with an e-fan.

 

I put a fex-a-lite fan on my 06 hemi and I pull a heavy fifth wheel camper. I pulled it last summer and it did great. That is the best thing you can do.

 

thanks guys just ordered the flex lite extreme 180 hopefully this fixes the problem

 

Feel free to post some pics of the install.
