EleElectric fan question
To start with, I have an 87 XJ with the 2.5 and AX5. My Jeep still runs perfectly cool, never gets over 200 despite having no fan shroud, worn out fan clutch, and bent blades on the fan (radiator hit the fan, bent the blades pretty bad). The fan being bent is the reason I'm looking to replace it, and I can get a factory XJ electric fan for free. So my question is, does a factory electric fan by itself move enough air to keep an XJ cool? Or should I just try to find another 2.5 XJ clutch fan in the junkyard?

The radiator in the 2.5 XJ is only roughly 16.5 x 20"

Id get a fan as close to same size as your radiator xjs are not close to that . This your factory fan ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fan-Blade-Crown-53000699-/140967440700?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20d250713c&vxp=mtr#ht_1102wt_1302
