That is a very common upgrade. Here is a little discussion on it. http://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f2/compatible-engines-69-cj-586/#post2449

It's an 02 TJ. Hay nice thread that gives me some good ideas and I like the concept of turning it off before water holes and possibly deep mud holes to keep the engine cleaner.

I'd definitely get a aftermarket or scrap yard fan. Just make sure it has a shroud. Fans suck with out shrouds... :laugh: That is a very popular addition and easy to do.

- '74 CJ-5,
360 AMC Engine.
35x12.50x15 TSL Super Swamper tires.
In a frame off rebuild for a long time...
from my research, the late 90's Taurus/Sable fan is the best one to use. Hi CFMs, and almost a bolt-on for the CJ radiators.
I have one sitting in the 'Waiting-to-be-installed' pile but it will be a while before I get that far.
Make sure to use a HI-Quality 75Amp relay and at least a 20 Amp switch to prevent melt-downs.

Skip the taurus fan and pick up a ford contour fan, it's a dual fan and puts out more CFM than a taurus not to mention it covers the whole radiator, and mounts to the stock shroud mounting locations.
