Review on ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ Enhance Cooling Efficiency with Derale 20161 Jeep Wrangler Direct Fit Electric Fan Kit in Black by Alex Barr

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wow! What a fan! 1990 Jeep Wrangler 2.5 liter

Great fan, very easy to install once you know the basic wiring. Even if you don't, they provide detailed installation instructions and everything you need. I had two small problems. The lower right bracket needs to be lifted slightly. If you can install this fan you can quickly measure it and drill some new holes in the fan housing. Not so hot what's up. The other major issue I had was the fan switch and my aftermarket coolant sensor in the adapter housing making contact. Screwing in the jeep's sensor broke the fan switch. A quick call to Derale customer service and they sent a new adapter with a custom switch specifically for my jeep the same day. This customer service alone is worth 5 stars! So far I have only turned on the fan manually with a toggle switch. The video says it all. Now that everything is hooked up properly, it accelerates just above the 210 mark and drops to around 185, right in the range my Jeep is designed for. I don't know the exact speed, but CFM is funny. I also lost about 6 pounds by getting rid of the stock fan and also bringing back the power from the pulley that drove the fan. All in all I am very happy with my purchase! All stars for product and customer service? ten!
