hehehehe....I JUST installed mine yesterday in the parking lot while Justin was tuning other peoples trucks...then the first thing he did was turn on my pins to make sure they work...then we tuned my truck...Installing the fans are SUPER easy...couple mins to do it...the wiring harness takes a lil longer to hook the pins into the pcm...but WELL worth it!

I was lucky to remember my tools when I went to a warehouse to get it done, Took some pics with the cell phone but they were not worth posting. The hardest part was getting the fun clutch off, If you guys want I can go take a pic of the garage that I had remove it

NO WAY!!! lol...taking the clutch fan off was totally easy...with only a crescent wrench and vise grips, it will take you (me) 40 seconds to sit in my driver seat, pop the hood, open the hood, put the vise grips on the pulley, and break the fan loose with the crescent! but pulling the PCM out, taking it apart, hooking the wires up and putting it all back together was the hard part for me...


sliding the E-Fans into place after the Clutch Fan is removed takes about 13.9 seconds

The difference in throttle response alone is worth the mod, not to the mention fuel economy and power increase.

How much did your mileage increase? Can you tell the difference in power while accelerating?

Ya pulling out of a dead stop I noticed a difference and when I kick it in the ass going up one of these Pennnsyltucky hills theres a difference. I dont think I'll I see that noticible difference in gas milage. Itas not like any of these mods are gonna jump ya from 12 to 23.
Maybe all together you might see a little difference, then again I didn't get mine because of its fantastic fuel economy.

A cool thing about that mod is it looks factory, like it was suppose to be there that way!! Way cleaner setup than aftermarket e-fans!! As soon as I get mine tuned I'll be in the market for those fans for sure!

how the heck did you do this, not include a parts and supplier list or a write up and then brag about how cool it is on top of everything??????? Im about to have a tantrum over here. I need this mod like a fat kid needs cake


on a side note, can this setup be wired easily to have the fans on a manual cut off switch???? I actually do a fair number of deep water crossings here in the outback and am sick of fiddling with that stupid fan belt removal in the middle of nowhere. It would be really nice to be able to switch off the fans, cross the water, flick em back on and roll out.

there's a couple write-ups out there.. I'll take some pics when I finally put mine in. Still waiting from my wiring harness from bb, 3 weeks and waiting :) I have patience though, Justin has kept me in the loop. I guess if I wasn't so lazy I'd make my own.

^ yes please make a how to write up w/ loys of good pics. i want to do this bad. ryan - from what ive been told you can set them up to run off a manual switch. the danger to that is one day forgetting to turn them on!
