miloc efan write up
There was a nice big write up on miloc a while back, and I had the link to it, but the topic is gone. It had a part number for an efan, a part number for a wiring kit, and great instructions. The whole thing cost around 150 bucks. Anyone have this info save anywhere? I have seen soap's write up, and it was great. But I want a pre-built harness that I might only have to modify a little. Thanks for any info.
BTW, this
turned up 67 pages of stuff, but I didn't find what I was looking for.

I had the same thread saved but Soaps thread has everythgin you need. On page 3 L-menace has the part number for the wiring setup. I got mine form autozone they had to order it and it took 2 days. I cut the blue wire out of the wiring kit and just ran the fan on high all the time. It supports dual fans but they both come on at the same time and with or without the air so there was no reason to run teh wires to the low side of my fan
I got a fan for free from a body shop it had a broken mounting tab. It was out of a Ford Crown Vic. pulls tons of air it can shut my thermostat even in 100 degree weather. I did install a 40 amp circuit breaker instead of the 30 amp fuse that keps blowing.

Haynes E-fan wiring kit #3647
you need to wire it?
I went through 3 wiring kits until I found the one I liked
HAYDEN electric Fan wiring kit, Part number 3647
why?
1. It has an adjustable thermometer for the On and Off of the fans, adjustable from 160-280 ( I think)
2. It can support Dual Cooling fans.
3. It has the A/C interface, to kick on the fans when the A/C comes on
4. You can wire in a manual on/off switch to cool down between runs.
5. You can get it at any MURRAY AUTO PARTS. The price is $34.99 plus $2.10 tax total $37.09.
IT is not a perfect kit, with the above fan you need to change the fuses to circuit breakers. I started with:
The Kit came with a 12v 25amp fuse which I tossed out.
I put 2 40 amp 14v circuit breakers in there.
The first one is about 2" from the battery (to protect that power wire), I installed an inline fuse holder and put the circuit breaker right there then sealed it with electrical tape, looks almost factory.
The other Is in the power going to the fan itself, the kit already had the fuse holder, I simply tossed the fuse and put in the 40 amp 14v circuit breaker.
I noticed on my old kit I had a 30 amp circuit breaker and it kept tripping as soon as the fan kicked on, fan would run for about 2 seconds. I went and bought a 40 amp 12v and it would run a little longer. The 40 amp 14v circuit breaker did the trick!!!
The Fan kit has a 40/50 amp relay and so far it has been working fine.
To adjust the fan "on" temp. I follwed the instructions. I installed it, and then started the truck, you let it warm up until the coolant thermostat pops open and the water starts circulating, I have a 160 degree thermostat so I knew somewhere around there it would open. Once that opened I knew I had to turn the little dial with a phillips screwdriver to set the temp for the fans. SO i was reaching down to grab the screwdriver and the fan kicked on. I'd say it was probably within a minute of the thermostat opening. (had to make sure it was opened)
one of my old kit had a radiator sensor that fit between the radiator cooling fins, that you slide through and put a clip on the end of it. This one had a similar sensor, but a completely different mounting kit. The new one has a plastic round zip tie that you side through and it connects to a plastic plate on the other side, you slide the sensor through the plate and it is fastened. (it looks much better than the old one and holds much better.)

BTW:
Soaps writeup is top notch
The fan can be bnought with employee discount for about $100-120
The wiring kit is cheap.
You can save yourself over $300 if you do it yourself VS. buying a premade kit from tuner
