My new pickup

Here is a picture from today, in my possession! I got insurance and put about 30 miles on it today. It's alot faster than I thought it would be. For sure faster than my old Mercedes diesel off the line. Keeps up with traffic great. I had tons of fun and driving it is already becoming second nature.

Re: My new pickup

There is one extremely important MODIFICATION you need to immediately follow through on.
The owner's name on the title.

Re: My new pickup

Also I need to get a new fan. Found a crack in mine last night. Any suggestions?

Re: My new pickup

Yes new hoses & clamps, fan belt, waterpump & aluminum fan blade. flush radiator, refill with water/antifreeze. Just bend that 4 blade fan backwards and it will come right off without removing the radiator.

If I wasn't running a stock fan I'd have the Snyder's aluminum 2 blade fan.:)
The last few years every one I've checked for quality and balance has been right on.

Thanks for the advice. I've been looking at those.

I guess my other question is can the stock fan be repaired? and would that be a better way to go?
