Will do. If I can spare the pennies for 2 blowers
Just remember that one fan aint enough to keep a V8 cool, particularly the 4.0/4.6 ones on GEMS or THOR engine management which run hotter because of their leaner fuel burning setup.

It comes with 2 fans, so i'll be replacing 2 fans. Depending on how this weekend goes.

Look on Kenlowes website or give them a call.
Twin 13" fans are good enough for a 3.9 V8, measure your radiator and see what would fit.
If a twin 13" setup would fit then you would assume that would be adequate as generally diesel engines don't run as hot as petrol ones.

You already got 2 fans?
You should have one big viscous fan attached to the front of the engine and maybe 2 electric fans which are to do with the airconditioning on the front behind the grille.

I too had trouble with the original viscous unit, fitted an 18" kenlow, works a treat, temp in 'normal' for 99% of the time, only cuts in when I tow the large trailer up & over the moors, & then the gauge rapidly drops back to normal, fitted the 2 over-ride switches into the small wood trim in dash, drivers side. Well pleased.
