Update, and More Questions
I am going to replace the clutch on the Air Conditioner Compressor, Seems it's going bad.
I want to replace the radiator from my 88 Bronco 2, 2.9L V6 Manual with one from a 91,92, or 93 Ford Explorer. Has anyone done this? Is it a good idea, or would I be better off sticking with a replacement radiator for the Bronco 2? I have heard that they are the same and will drop right in, but I was wondering if anyone has experienced any problems with this.
I would also like to find a different type of cooling fan, right now I have a stock cooling fan with a thermal fan clutch, and I want to replace it with an electric fan. Does anyone have any experience with this? Also, what brands/prices should I be looking at? Would you recommend a pusher or puller installation?
Finally, it turns out that my driveline shaft is not shot, the cv joints are just torn all to heck. I currently have the option of either replacing the joints, or getting a U-joint type driveline shaft. Is there any advantage to fixing the CV other than price, or am I better off with a new U-joint type shaft? If I do fix the CV joint one, is it just going to tear up again in a short time?
Thank you all for your help in advance, and for those that posted on my last message!
