I was on the last nut taking the fan off to replace the clutch...to make a long story short a fan blade had a close encounter with a hammer. Anyone know of a good replacement fan for my 1998 Cherokee SE? the dealer said he had one but I drove over there and there wasn't one in the place. That's Memphis for you. At this point I don't care if it's after market, just need to get her back on the road.

 

ebay is your friend. also what exactly do you mean, did you break it, or just bend it?

 

Just bent it. I straightened it back out but don't really want to take a chance with it considering the rpm's it turns.

 

Other than the dealer or jy, it may be a challenge to find a fan that small at a parts store. I would think balance would be more important than straight....but don't force it, just get a bigger hammer. LOL

 

Tried the parts store route after the dealer...it was a long shot. Guess I'll try to order it on Monday thru the mean green.

 

Anyone know of after-market fan options?

 

Smallest counterclockwise fan that Summit shows is 13".....don't see how that will work as its got to fit/clear the shroud.

Thanks for the info...Looks like I'll bite the bullet and get the stock fan thru the dealer. I know that one will work.

 

Get one at a junkyard. $5 I would just try straitening it first. If it wobble then change it.

 

I scored a fan from a 1998 Jeep Limited that's the same size. It has an overhead console I paid the for but the rear hatch won't open. Anyone got advice?
