    Can you list all the parts that are supposed to come in the box? Mine was damaged to the point that even the UPS guy was like "you should probably refuse shipment". It looked like everything was there probably but I might have lost some bolts.

    If these are going to go into production you really need to work on your packing. I know UPS probably isn't gentle, but a lot of it is coming from everything being loose inside.

    That said I'm excited to install it this weekend assuming I have everything!

    So I think it's just the nuts and bolts I may be missing if you can list the sizes and how many I'll need I'll just go buy them. It'll be easier for me. There was a piece of plastic that broke off from somewhere. I haven't seen where yet but I'll look more later. Hopefully it's not somewhere that matters. It looks like it's just a piece that would hold wiring down. For the next one you do just tape pieces to card board so they don't move around and maybe get some styrofoam for edges and corners. You're really doing yourself, and such a high quality product, a disservice with such a shit packing job. I'll take a picture of the box if you want to see how it ended up for me? Normally I would have refused shipment, but I know y'all are small and trying to build cool shit for tacomas.

    Got the shipping number. Thanks for the quick fix! I'll let you know when I'm ready for a supercharger after I install the fan. :thumbsup:

    OP i was asked a question that i dont think has come up yet how will the fan react if we go thru a water crossing? Will water getting into the fan motor kill it? Do you have any info on how the fan will work in a water crossing?

    If anyone hates the included temp sensor as much as me this is a much better replacement. I’m probably the only one with issue but I had the most trouble disconnected the stupid sensor included in the kit. I guess I damaged it because it stopped making a good connection.

    https://www.summitracing.com/parts/avm-30-2013

    This threads into the mishimoto adapter no problems, and it has a tab you can press to disconnect the sensor. You will have to make sure number 1 & 2 dip switched in the fan controller are in the down position with this sensor. No more fan going full bore randomly because of a bad connection :)

    Still running my kit with the original sensor has been working good for a couple of years now. In the beginning I was overheating found out the sensor was bad. Nice to have a 2nd option if needed Thanks!
    Where are you in SoCal?

    I had replaced that sensor as well. My biggest issue with it was the connector. I was too dumb to be able to easily remove it haha.

    I’m in the menifee area

    I made myself pretty much the same exact kit, and wasn't too hard to source out everything that was needed. RockAuto had the exact same fan on sale at the time so that was a bonus. I bought the Fan Controller at Summit Racing. It's been well over two years since the E-Fan Conversion and have had absolutely zero issues.
