Fan swaps
I drive a 97 XJ Country, and for whatever reason we've broken 3 fan shrouds so far and are now looking into swapping the mechanical fan for an electric fan.
What is considered the best and easiest way to do this? We're crunched for time, and aren't really worried about gains in HP or gas mileage, though the gas mileage would be a plus.
We've read about finding another auxiliary fan to replace the mechanical one, and have the information we need for that one. But we'd like to look into other ways to do it.
Thanks in advance!
