The cooling fan clutch is a cooling system component that controls the operation of the engine cooling fan. When the engine overheats, the radiator needs the help of the cooling fan to blow air into the device. After the engine reaches the proper operating temperature, the fan clutch will be mechanically disengaged, thus saving some power for your vehicle.

How to Replace a Bad Fan Clutch
Removing the Fan
Mechanically driven fans with four bolts
Loosen the bolts in the fan cover to remove the fan. After that, disconnect the fan shroud and remove the shroud. Pull out the nut that secures the fan to the pump pulley, hold the fan and pull it forward with a slight rocking motion until the fan is loose and finally comes out.
Cooling fan with large nut
Disconnect the fan sealed by the large nut. Insert it around the bolt on the pulley. Use a large wrench to turn counterclockwise to loosen the nut.
Disconnecting the Clutch From the Fan
Set aside the detached fan. Make sure that the shaft is up. Use the suitable socket and ratchet to remove the bolts that fasten the clutch to the fan.
Installing the New Fan Clutch
Align the new fan clutch in the position and secure it to the fan by tightening the bolts. After that, reassemble the fan and shroud.
The replacing steps are only for reference, and we recommend you to ask the technician to do the installation.

Fit well but cheaply made, not sure it'll work through summer.

Surface cracks in the casting were showing some signs of possible oil seepage. Returned it and had to reinstall the old one in order to leave on vacation. Very disappointing and frustrating. DO NOT BUY.

Too much friction making fan noise almost sound like my bad one. Order OEM part to save the time do it twice.
