Fan Clutch going out
My fan clutch is starting to go out. Someone at work said to use a flex fan i think thats what he called it. If so do yall have a part number and where do I order one or should I go back with the fan clucth. Thanks for yall's input.
Flex-a-lie perhaps?

There are also these:
Derale Performance Dual Electric Fans
Do you do a lot of towing, or is the truck more of a commuter? The factory fan can pull more CFM then these electrics can, so goes the rumor.

Check out this thread. I have been running these dual fans on my truck for over a year and tow heavy in the heat of summer. I have yet had to use the high settings even hauling 20,000 plus pounds in 100 degree heat. Total cost was less then $100.

the electric flex-a-lites are great fans. i had them on my truck for 2 years and dyno proved 23 hp at the wheels. and 2 mpg with them. cooled great in all weathers and the a/c worked much better. only reason i took them off was towing really heavy loads they dont work quite as well. im bout to put them back on now though, dont tow anymore. as far as the flex fan them drawing more than a clutch fan thats crap and a big load of it. they are lighter and less weight takes less power to spin. we put one on a 02 in the shop and removed the clutch and it cools perfect.
the 94-02 is flx-262 03 up is flx-264
