wtb fan shroud

[xjjk]

willing pay up to one BILLION dollars for a good fan shroud for my 87.
However, since I don't even have a thousand laying around, anyone with a more reasonable price will be considered first.

Thanks fellas.

PM'd you.

Did your fan eat yours too??

 

[xjjk]

it did that a long time ago - which caused me to put the napa motor mounts in.... which apparently didn't last too long.
now I'm on radiator #3, a CSF 3 core, and after fighting with the radiator mount all day Sat to move it back 2", I figured I'd go for broke and buy a new shroud too.

They're about $15 brand new from the dealer. At least that's what I paid for one a few years back.

Not to jack the thread or anything, but has anyone ever had any trouble getting their shroud to go in? I broke TWO brand new ones cause they just didn't wanna go! :flamemad:

 

[xjjk]

i understand to get them to go down nicely you gotta feed 'em a couple glasses of wine and promise them marriage....

Haha I hear that...
That's what I shoulda done... I used lube instead :roflmao:
This is what happened after I cracked the SECOND brand new one and got pissed off and hucked it across the garage... it broke again in my hand while I was throwin in... that plastic's freakin SHARP.

Ouch...

You should post up in the OEM forum..

Are you trying to install the shroud with the fan on?? I don't know what the "proper" way to install the shroud. However, I remove the fan, install the shroud, then the fan.

Ya, the funny part is, I don't remember how I finally got the shroud on the last time (about a year ago). But I did it recently after getting a new motor and it freakin slipped in w/out a problem... beats the hell outta me... :dunno:
