I use the Flexalite dual fan on my '98 R/T. I had to do a little
modifying, but it fits and cools fine for now. I installed it in OCT and
I live in N.TX, so I expect cooling troubles this summer with A/C. I
will either run the stock fan/clutch setup then or add another small fan
to the condenser. The condenser gets hotter and requires more cooling on
R134 systems. I like the extra power I get from the fans, but I thought
ahead when I installed them and made the system easily removeable. For
more details, I posted at least 3 times on the install in late SEPT or
early OCT. Check the archives, the only mis-information in there is the
price, not 240.00, more like 150.00 from Summit.Alan S.
