For those of you that have installed an XJ radiator/ fan clutch yourself, how difficult was it on a scale of 1-10?

 

Difficulty 2.5 time consuming 5

Its just tedious work, not real difficult just unbolt and rebolt

 

radiator: 2
fan clutch/viscous drive: 2

a note on the viscous drive assembly. It CANNOT be stored in the flat/horizontal position, as the silicon fluid will leak into the bearing assembly and contaminate the lubricant. If the auto parts store stored it this way - WALK AWAY.

 

X2 on the 2...Tj

 

Agreed above... the radiator is a 2, fan clutch is easy as 4 bolts. Just have a few hours and maybe a friend to help tackle the job. I think your '95 still has the *cough* false *cough* quick-disconnects for the auto trans cooling lines unless you have a manual in which case dont worry about it. If you need help, just ask and we will be happy to help.

 

ive changed my radiator and there was not much to it, pretty easy and not too time consuming

 

Difficulty - 2
Beers consumed - 4

 

I don't need the special fan clutch wrenches?

 

Ditch the mechanical fan and get an elec one cheap and easy fix

 

its really not that hard. it took me 20 minutes...
