Sweet is all I can say. The temprature-drop when the fan comes on is amazing!!! Highly recommend allright

It is HELL to install tho. Be prepared for scratched arms,few choice words, and digging bolts out of the skid-plate. I'll post a pic tomorrow.

How hard of an install was it? My fan runs all the time..........will this really help that much? I wonder if this one will fit the 700 Rhino?

LT it stopped my fan run time by about 50%, no kidding. I'm not sure about it fitting the 700 call Ron @ TCP 208-360-2728 or Garth @ 208-351-7877 for fitment. Or you probably can E-mail them @ www.tcpperformance.com


The install............whew getting to the lower bolts was hell. I took off the drivers-side top-shock bolt and the drivers-side radiator hose to get it in there. On a 07 that was the only way, even if you completely removed the radiator it wo'nt go back in with shroud and fan bolted up.
I am impressed with this piece tho. It reduces the fan run-time by pulling air through the whole core not just a little circle the diameter of the fan-blades. It cools off to fan-turn-off temp way faster thus reducing run-time.

Thanks Yank. I sent them a message on ebay and the guy asked me......."Didn't yours come with a shround?" I had to sit and think about it. Since the thing is so new to me I could not remember. All I remember was that fan runs all the time and it is kinda irritating. Oh well, I would rather hear the fan than lock my motor up. I think I am going to carry a garnen sprayer in the back and when we stop, just spray the radiator occasionally. Maybe that will help.

the shroud helped me a ton too - and its well worth the $60 or so....

the tcp guys are pretty cool - and if you email em - they may have a blem with scratches.... who cares though it aint seen and they will give you about $20 off or so.... worthy of an email....

I did not go through ebay - I emailed them direct and they sent a paypal invoice - and it was here 3 days later....
