Jack,
Here is the response from my friend on the GC List.
Tim
>What kind of fan is he using , and is it on the 5.9 or the 5.2 ? I want
to
put one in my R/T but I need something that will physically fit the area
and secondly flow enough air !!!
Tell them that they need to get to a Jeep dealer and check out a GC 5.9L
Limited (soon, as it was rare and there aren't many left), which is the
only 5.9L factory setup with an electric fan. I think that fan would fit
on
the Dak, and since the wiring is all external to the PCM, so would the
relay wiring harness, thermostatic switches (which are mounted in the
upper
and lower radiator hoses via nifty T-fittings), etc. The GC 5.9 Limited
setup is documented by Jeep as saving 20 HP over the mechanical fan! This
is perhaps the main reason that 4WD GC 5.9 Limiteds run equal times when
compared to 2WD Dakota 5.9 R/T Club Cabs (they both weigh about the
same).
Scott.
