GrandpaX Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) More Alum work.... Trying another radiator configuration... Had a custom Jegs radiator in the shed for a past project. Wondering if I can get this bad boy to fit... Went to the Junkyard and picked up a Volvo E-Fan... these are the same unit as the 2-speed Taurus fan... only removable from the shroud. These Volvo units also have an easy to remove relay pack for the fan. This is also on the way... coolant fan switch from NAPA. This switch is used in THESE applications. While at the yard getting the fan... napped the plug (and a used spare switch) from a VW.. Making it work together...

Tungsten Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Looks awesome. I wish I knew about those Volvo fans earlier. You should make custom shrouds that fit stock Pathfinder radiators with those fans in them. They are the ultimate electric fan mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaMountianbiker Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 does that thing ever come out of the Garage ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandpaX Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) does that thing ever come out of the Garage ? Does it need to? This thing is where most of the new mods are come up with. It will someday drive and do everything well. However it is probably my last huge Nissan build... so why not make it a good one.

GrandpaX Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 You have the coolest toys. Thanks, ya all this crap and my favorite toy is... As I get older the luxury of getting away from it all has become more and more inviting. Bought this middle of the road 29er last summer.. It helps me get lost.

GrandpaX Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Getting slowed down by other everyday commitments... however getting close on the truss for the 96-97 Isuzu Rodeo Dana 44. It is a smaller version of what I posted before... The pan hard runs the other way to match the direction of the front track bar (SAS). The truck is setting high on jack stands.. the pan hard is almost level at ride height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
