    Wrong replacement engine fan...

    My fan in my Freightliner even on wildfires slow going on hills etc would only come on once in a while on a Cat 3406C loaded to 48,000 lbs GVW. You knew when it came on too it was loud. Seem like if it uses 57 HP which is a lot and hardly comes on less HP and more fan use might be better? I am...

    Well I will do the bolt on method. I have a bunch of Allen bolts that have shoulders on them so the smooth part in the hole not the threads. Not paying 700.00 for a bolt on one if I can do the same thing and probley with better bolts. I will use these bolts or type of Allen Head Grade 8 hardness.

    Wrong replacement engine fan...

    Boy it sure re/shaped the hub compaired to the one in the other picture. I would be afraid to run the fan to long bolted solid. Seems like the design is for it to slip a little when engaged?? Wonder if those hole are to let some of the worn rubber out as it wears? Being plastic I would be afraid...
