'24 fan assembly let go - anyone have a spare please??

Hi all,

I had a fan blade fly off while driving along today, that one impaled itself into the side of the rad frame (fatigue?), while the others must have shaken around and mashed themselves into the rad itself

Consequently the rad will need re-coring, and I need to find another fan assembly ASAP (I'm hoping to be out on our local New Year's Day run). I'll need to buy another fan belt too, although I seem to remember seeing them listed with the place I bought parts from last year.

Has anyone a spare fan assy that they'd be willing to post over????? The photo below shows how things ended up, although prior to the picture I bent the three attached blades back out of the core, to have a look at it more closely.

thanks, Richard

An hour later and all stripped down.

I'll check-how long end to end? Try Meyers in MI.

Myers has "call for pricing" so they may or may not carry it.

I may also be able to help but I'll wait to see if Dodge City Dave has one for you.

Thanks all, I'll take measurements tomorrow and get back to you.

Hi, tip to tip it's 17 inches in diameter (bearing in mind it's a little mangled at the ends!!!)

thanks, RJ

I'll check Monday.

Go ahead and check-he needs asap- Its ok and thanks for the consideration.

PS looking closer, I think the shaft has bent down slightly too ...

I think I have a spare. Unfortunately I'm out of town next week and won't be able to check until Friday evening.

Hi all,

I think I'm sorted now for the fan, if there's a problem I'll update the thread. I'm taking the radiator over to a specialist tomorrow to assess the work required (a new core) so hopefully things will start going back together in the not-too-distant future.

Thanks to everyone who's offered to have a look for a fan, it is much appreciated!!!!

I can sent some pictures - if you will send your e-mail

I would take $ 50.00 USD for the complete unit, Plus freight - No Charge for crating.

If this will help, let me know,

Hi Donn,

Many thanks for your offer - I think I have one now, but if there's a problem I'll be in touch thanks.

Out of interest, do you stock any parts to suit the big 331 cu in straight six truck engine?
