The stock ones that I have bought from auto-zone have always been funky heavy duty ones that don't seem to work the way they should, mine before it went out would be locked solid when cold and sorta half lock when warm but would always keep the engine so cold the top radiator hose would be warm and the bottom would be almost outside temp cold. And they never did well at slipping when they should so since I have no real bills to pay off E-fans it is for the old girl.
Maybe now I'll stand a chance against my buddy's 84 F-250 with a 347 in it , doubtful but I'll try it and see how close we are.

Thats cool. Only time I had a cooling system issue was with my first truck. Took me awhile to find a leak it had. HAd a bad side tank on the radiator. Replaced that along with the t-stat, water pump, and all of the hoses since I had it all apart. Ran great all summer long. Winter came along and I would warm that truck up and by the time I was about a mile from my house it would be ice cold with no heat at all because it was cooling too well. Had to block off the radiator with cardboard to allow it to stay warm.

That was my plan as well but being that the fan went out before I remember to borrow some cardboard from work I ended up going back to this idea. I plan on getting a better fan than what I have now for the summer so I can use my A/c with it safely if I decide to finish fixing it on my truck come next summer, but for now and until spring what I have will work perfectly. Also I think a lightbar would be neat on your truck.

Yeah they are not cheap but the company that makes them has really good customer service and the lights have done really well for me. the current set has withstood the accident the truck was in a year ago and still work great. Only ever had one issue with them and that was a bad seal on one light that caused it to fail. They replaced both lights with no issue at all.
