Question Lightning swap help..

Ok so I am sure I will have a million questions going into this thing. But here is one- I ordered a lightning water pump for my swap, When I got it I looked it over and noticed that that "bolt" is too big for the "nut" on my fan clutch. Do I just need to find a lightning fan to go with it? I didn't realize the lightning water pump and stock f150 pump would have different size shafts.. ?

Nah I like the reliability og clutch fans- electric fans are just one more electrical thing to think about.. PLUS they are spendy.. So I just received a fan clutch used, supposedly from an L and it is the same size as the one I already have.. Now I don't know if I have the wrong waterpump or just haven't got the right fan clutch... anyone know if there is a size difference in waterpump shaft sizes??

Mike Dunn can get you a spacer for the stock fan / water pump (or for the Navigator pump)

Yeah I actually have one in the kit I bought from Josh- I just pulled the waterpump out and it's a super cheapo from like autozone.. so I bought a used L pump off of disco @ LR.. I think I can find a clutch fan at a local wrecking yard
