    electric fans

    I have a couple of electric fans that have been sitting around on a shelf. One came off a Taurus and the other came out of the front seat of the same Taurus. I think they're the two speed fans, but I can't remember... I'll try to test them out tomorrow and double check.

    I used the third one I got on my Jeep and it was pretty easy to modify to bolt up to my radiator. The shroud was about the same size, but required a little cutting.

    $50 each OBO

    The whole fan shrouds measure about 21" wide by 18" tall and the fans are 17-18" in diameter.

    Let me know ASAP because I'm going to try and head out of here tomorrow before lunch...

    To tell if they are 2 or 3 speed just look to see how many contacts are in the plug. The one on the right looks like it has 3 wires coming out of it so its probably a 3spd. If just 2 contacts then its a 2spd.

    WRONG!! i know my electric fans...

    Two wires is a single speed...hot and ground. Three wires is a two speed...low speed hot, high speed hot, and ground.

    there you go talkin' out your bunghole again.
