I went the not-often-recommended route and ordered the KSuspension triple fan setup. People are going to jump right in here and say all sorts of things about why not to do this HOWEVER here's my experience:
It
Works
FANtastic!
I got rid of the factory clutch fan, freeing up engine load (a small amount, I know, but it's noticeable!), and I have a Trinity Fan Controller by NickInTime... I maintain temperatures with no heatsoak. None. 90 degrees outside, fans are going, temps aren't budging.
check out the link in my sig for a link to the KSuspension system. if you go that route, you won't be disappointed.
Also, before I forget, also wheeling. I'm on my third jeep. All three at the very least got hotter. It literally doesn't budge. I'm in awe.

When I did my water pump a few years back I decided to replace my electric fan. Nothing wrong with it except one of the tabs was broken. And to be frank think I did that. '00 was a kinda not running purchase and one of the first things I had to do was replace the radiator. Not knowing how it was set up probably snapped it pulling the fan out. Glued it over the years and it held until the next time that I had to pull it out so... Anyway bought one of the cheap Ebay fans. Thinking $45. I decided on this particular one cause it looked just like a factory one in the picture. But when I got it was not even close and I was pissed. But then I actually looked at the fan and saw that it was better in couple ways. The wiring for the connector was longer which meant I could pull it out and just move it to the side. Also instead of the metal clips on the tabs the molded tabs were just wedged with no clips. Fits nice and secure plus comes out and goes back in really easy. Been at least 4 years now and so far so good.
Pretty sure this is the one I bought.
