Save you jeep mechanical fan bearing

[Bmfinney]

Guys have any of you ordered the replacement bearing that save your jeep sells? Supposed to be an oem style fan clutch hub bearing? I know you can use the water pump bearing as a suitable replacement but after reading reviews they are kinda negative. Then I came across the save your jeep website.

This worked fine for me 3yrs now, the back is a little longer but does not impede with anything, make sure to take measurement of front penetration. There is a video out there of the install, I'm not sure I would have been able to do it if I didn't have a press.

Okay thanks guys! Yeah I found one on eBay I’m gonna go ahead and order it. I have a press and all the tools to do it I should be good to go
