Default Hydraulic cooling fan to eletric cooling fan

Anyone know how much it costs it parts and what I have to do convert the entire hyrdraulic system to an electric cooling system and how to reroute the power steering lines?

As far as the hydraulic system is concerned, you should be able to just plug the supply and return hoses. The pressure relief valve in the pump should allow this because this system is just a pressure bleed from the normal power steering.

As far as the electrical part is concerned, check a recent post by Flame. He was very informative in his post about what he used and how he did it. Lots of pics.

Sounds good, I'll have to check it after work. It seems more cost effective to go the electrical route since the parts are cheaper and not in the dealers hands.
