    I hope that's helpful.

    Almost a year after I bought the HF controller, I got around to installing it today. Super pleased. It silenced the buzzing and vibrations coming from the Fans. Happy as can be. It you have standard Spal fans, This is the controller for you.

    Ok, read through the whole thread. I am guessing these have to be called in and special ordered? I don't see a kit on their website.

    Just be aware that his was for a manual, not sure if you have an auto or manual. You will need them to add the tranny cooler/heat exchanger if you're auto.

    Also for future reference. FJ CRUISER Ron Davis Radiator drawing reference numbers:

    FJ Cruiser Radiator with dual Spal fans, tranny cooler(for auto), shroud, and Recovery Tank - 18-01504APP Last revision I saw was 11/6/2018, but they should have revised it after that. Only thing, and I mean the only thing I would change would be the Passenger's side temperature bung location. Its mounted down low on the radiator and is close to the frame rail there. I would have preferred it above the lower mount on that side. If I was buying again, I would move that port up.

    So, with this controller, Ron’s relays are not needed correct?
    The controller is a solid state relay like a ‘switch pro’?

    Correct, if you use a controller like this, the temperature controlled relays that Ron includes are unnecessary. I can’t comment on the internals of the controller exactly as to what all the components are but here’s a link from them that talks about transistors Vs relays: https://6ada7420-0a94-4876-84b9-ecd...d/8511ca_1346805eef2a468d80b55706a54901c1.pdf
