It's about $500 from there website. I can't wait to get it in. It came with everything needed to install. It's all rewired with a switch to turn it off for water crossings. It can be set to come on from 125° to 225°. They also have one without the shrouds for if I remember correctly $400.

Hopefully good. The only thing is the shrouds are right in the radiator fins so the mud nay get trapped in it. Like I said before there is a swish to turn the fans off for the deep stuff. I really don't play in deep mud, just what I have to go through when trail riding. Im more into playing on rocks so it should work great for me. I'll let everyone know when it gets installed. Now time to order my lift this weekend!

I got mine inspected today. Much to my surprise, the only things they flagged were 2 dead bulbs. Apparently, having an e-brake isn't that important.

They make the one without the shrouds. I think that would work out better for mud I would think.

Sprayed rubberized undercoating on all the new bolts and the tie in brackets to keep them from rusting.

Since I moved my steering box to put the tie in brackets in, my steering wheel isn't straight anymore. How do I fix it? It's pretty bad lol.
where did u get that bumper at cause im in need of abumper.

Added the decals I got from YellaXJ. I didn't get the CF.com decal from him but I did have him make me a couple username decals to go under it.
