Red's 2002 Double Cab Long Travel Build

I’m going to run one in my Jeep once it’s running. I have it mounted and ready to go.

I heard the same about it. We’ll see.

Definitely two speed though.

 

Also finished up the bedside mounts, now just waiting on hardware to mount it to the glass.

 

Yeah I guess the wiring is a little difficult, but I'll figure it out and it'll be posted on here. I guess the low speed is has a lot of CFM, so I'm going to have two switches one for low speed and one for high. Not going to do any fancy temperature switches, just fully manual.

 

Right on. I have a couple of relays and plan on hooking it up to a temp switch but haven’t yet. I’m also considering hooking it up straight to the battery so it runs a little while after I turn the engine off. Not sure if that’d be beneficial or not.

 

Yeah I'll be using a 30-40 amp relay for low and an 80 amp for the high. As far as having it run for a little while, cooling it after shutdown isn't really going to do anything I don't believe. Unless you're drag racing it and need it to cool down quickly.

 

That makes sense. Would probably just drain my battery too.

I’ll take a picture once I get mine all set up.

The whole set up came with the Jeep so it’s great to hear that it should work with the 4.0l. The mechanical fan was removed or the motor was from a grand Cherokee which used electric fans.

(I bought a Jeep YJ with no motor in it but it came with a used motor from what I think was a Cherokee).

 

Yeah, I hear it works for some pretty high output motors and it's supposed to bolt right up to the 22re rad. But we all know how those things go.

 

Got the taurus fan partially installed.

Working with some pretty tight clearances though. I'll have to see how it looks when the engine revs up. If it is a problem, I can move the radiator to the back sides of the mounts and that'll give me another 1/8" or so. Or maybe it'll do a little self clearancing

 

Same setup I’m running. Made my own fan shroud and moved the motor to a side so that it cleared.

 

Right on, mine had zero clearance the other way so I went with this way

 

Here’s mine.

 

Well a little more common than I thought lol

 

I’m going to drop the tranny a little so that should help clear a little more.

Here's a wiring diagram if you need it

Got it fully mounted, lookin beefy.


Also gained some clearance.

And mounted up the front end, and oh mah lawwd does it look good

 

Yeah helps alot actually, where'd you mount your relays? Trying to keep all the electrical clutter free.

 

Also, I ordered 10 gauge, will that suffice?

 

There's no where for blinkers on the bumper and looks cleaner without them, so I went for the dual function blinker and running lights can't show a video but I can assure it works lol

 

Hood struts installed from @SpikerEng, one of the better mods to install.

 

Decided to add the led strip to the blinker/running light setup.
