Seeing as no ones said anything I'll do it i did alot if research I found a company that makes offroad cooling fans for jeeps and other also they make electric convertion kits. They do not have one avalible for any wj let alone the 2001-04 which is 100% hydrolic off the steering pump. So I've been talking with the owner and he's willing to build one custom as a proto type and I would have to be a test if you interestead I can see. You his email so he can gain momentume faster it's something as far as I can find no one else has done!

Never been done as an actual kit is what I ment no one that I can find has it on the market and this would be like that like u buy the fan and it comes with all the proper fittings and hoses and you don't have to do all this custom work or change out the steering pump but thanks for the read I didn't know about needing a flow control valve

For one, you can't buy the parts for them. They are discontinued and the aftermarket don't offer the parts. I am super frustrated right now cause I got a issue with the fan not kicking up and I think I am just going to let it run at 250 degrees until it blows. This was the worst design they could have made a better product.
