Re: Radiator Fans, I went thru every fan mod and combination possible trying to keep a 345 V8 Scout cool in Arizona. Matt is absolutely right the water pump driven stocker will haul more air than anything with one caveat: It must have a shroud. And the fan must stick out the back of the shroud about 1/2 to 3/4 inch. Set up like that, the air coming thru the shroud strangely does not blow straight back across the engine but rather exits at 90 degrees from the edge of the shroud, or right straight off the ends of the fan blade.

[@chpalmer2007]

Same thing.. went through several "electric fan combos on my 4.0 and eventually had to go back to stock fans with a 3 core radiator.

Problem is, the internet is full of people who offer advice based on the fact that they've just bought a thing, owned it for two weeks, and aren't prepared to ackowledge the possibility that they could have bought something better OR they've been given a thing for free and they want you to go and buy that thing. In that environment, it's often hard to accept that somebody has actually put in the work, tried all the alternatives and is offering advice because they KNOW, for certain, that it's correct.

There's also a lot of people that like to kiss the backside of someone they will likely never meet. Many people, including some that have commented on these videos, have actually tried. They have actually found something that works well and they are trying to pass along that advice. Then you have other people that are being stubborn, that's right, not aggressive but stubborn, and ignoring that advice. The fact that Matt is saying that he's tried the best there is while referring to a SPAL e-fan shows me that he hasn't tried much. OEMs have produced much better electric fans that could easily be adapted to work in this rig, he's already adapting parts from other vehicles, a fan wouldn't be difficult. There are options from all of the big three (Chevy, Ford, and Dodge) that flow way more than that SPAL and some in the same range as the claimed "9000 cfm" (

It doesn't see any sun so it's not a UV problem. It's just junk hose. There is sometimes a reason why things are cheaper on Amazon and it isn't the economics of scale.

Lets ask Jamie about your attitude when you "drop knowledge". Trust me, she'll be brutally honest about it.

Probably 90% or more of people who watch these videos have never fabricated to the level we see on this channel. Let alone complete a build from scratch or do a tear down and rebuild! And if it’s those few people that are criticizing you, tell them to apply or a job. I bet very few could a do what you do. Feel free to drop knowledge this way anytime!!!

I've built/helped build an ATV from the ground up making most of the components by ourselves. We only bought brake equipment, the engine and the CV joints and some small stuff. Saying that, even I am surprised by the level of manufacturing on this channel.

Only things I'd do differently and I've built a few jeeps n trucks is beadlocks and a electric fan for when idling

[@HarryScribner]

Your practical information is really great! I've put an electric fan on every vehicle I've owned (that didn't come with one) because of the HP leach. Never had an issue in southern California heat. But it makes sense if you're running high RPM, dragging vehicles at low speeds. Probably why big rigs and tractors (that I've seen) don't use electric fans.

Glad they fixed Ed’s truck. Is there anything Matt and Rudy and Trevor and the others can’t do, make or fix or modify? Welcome to Matt’s Off Road Recovery, where we do the difficult immediately and the impossible takes juuussst a little longer!

Didn’t know Matt had a son. Thought he had the whistling diesel dude on this vid. Need to watch this channel more often.

[@rogerdunn5491]

4 sons

[@georgeorwell126]

Matt has several sons. I am guessing you have not watched many of these videos at all since they are frequently in the action.

[@EdRochon]

Matt would have zero tolerance for whistlin diesel's antics lol

[@Perumet]

Just want to say Rudy looks glorious with his hair growing out

Mill out a larger water pump pulley. That will slow the water pump down at higher speeds. It will also allow the coolant to spend more time in the radiator cooling it down more.

I have an 02 WJ 4.0L also heating issues , I removed front & rear weather strips , I got clutch & plastic fan & electric fan . So far it doing ok for now I’m in TX heat . Love your videos Matt 👍👍👍👍👍👍
