Well Jeg's new magazine arrived in my mail box today and the first section i go to is the Mopar Performance, its only 2 pages. But i saw this https://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?lang=-1&catalogId=10002&storeId=10001&categoryId=16411
Just wondering if anyone had a thought about it, and how hard would that be to put on? Would it be a worthwile mod?

Doesn't your ZJ have a viscous fan already? Our '94 ZJ 4.0L does.

You won't even feel the difference. If it made your Jeep faster it would be because your wallet is lighter.
I just checked out your Cardomain link, that's a nice Jeep.

it has to be some small amount of horsepower freed up with a higher power fan or even bigger

Hi i am new to your site. my name is michael jordan....lol i own a 2002 grand cherokee limited with the 4.7 i havent got alot done to it i have three tv's w/ playstation 2, flowmaster 50 series exhaust, K&N filter , custom painted resinator and airbox to match exterior color,2 12" memphis PR 400 watt amp neons under the seats and blue/yellow headlamps and fog lamps.........as for the fan thing i have no fan running off the pulleys mine is electric i always heard that it made more power to run it electric and not off the pulleys is that true? If it is maybe you could find the electric fan setup and go that route. pictures of my jeep are here.....

I think there's a difference in terminology in this case. It won't provide any gain, but it will free up some lost HP, just like synthetic oils will free up some torque and power in the drivetrain.

the 5.9 electric fan conversion is a straight bolt in too.. that would produce better results.. contact Kolak @ aol.com and he should be able to hook yuou up with the parts you need... prob will cost more not sure how much more
