As long as the Flex-a-lite Dual 15" S-Blade Electric Radiator Fans with Shroud Assembly part # FLX293 was mounted in front of the radiator and transmission cooler in a way that pulled air through the fan into the coolers than you would not need to remove the factory clutch and radiator fans as both the factory cooling fans are set to pull air into the coolers.
However, if the Flex-a-lite Dual 15" S-Blade Electric Radiator Fan was mounted in front of the radiator and transmission coolers... view full answer...
For your 1993 Olds Bravada with a 4.3L V6, you will want to use a fan that is rated for 1,600 to 2,000 cubic feet per minute. If you are going to be using the vehicle for towing, the higher rated fan is recommended for additional airflow.
There is no custom fit electric radiator fan for your vehicle, so you will need to measure what diameter fan will fit on your radiator. The dimensions for our electric fans are listed in the specifications on our website.

For the best performance, a radiator fan like Derale 12 Inch High-Output, Electric Radiator Fan, # D16925, should be mounted directly against the radiator. If there is a gap, less airflow will go through the radiator and it will not be as efficient. If you do not want to use the included mounting straps, I would find another way to mount it directly against the radiator for ideal performance. I have included a link to our FAQ article on electric fans for reference. view full answer...
The Derale 4 inch High-Output Extreme Paddle Blade Electric Fan, # D16104, is designed for puller applications only, so the fan must be mounted on the inboard side of the radiator to pull cooler outside air into the engine compartment and over the radiator.
The smallest reversible air flow fan that we carry at this time is the Derale 7 inch Tornado Electric Fan, item # D16617. This fan can be installed as a pusher fan on the forward side of the radiator or as a puller fan on the inboard... view full answer...
To use the Derale Dual High-Output Electric Radiator Fan, part # D16927, in your 1956 Chevrolet with 350 small block you will need to be able to fit the 3-3/4-inch-deep fan housing between the radiator and the engine. (This is a puller fan which draws air in through the front of the radiator; it mounts behind the radiator.) The overall dimensions of the fan housing are 26-inches wide x 18 inches tall x 3-3/4-inches deep.

In order to determine the correct fit fan for the front of the radiator on your 1956 Chevy you will need to measure the area in front of your radiator and determine how much room you have to work with.
The Derale Radiator Fan # D18910 that you referenced has overall dimensions of 11-1/2 inches wide by 10-3/4 inches tall and 2-3/8 inches deep. If you find that you have room in front of your radiator for a fan with these dimensions then this fan should work for you.

I spoke with my contact at Derale and he stated that on the Dual High-Output, Electric Radiator Fan-and-Shroud Assembly, # D16927, the fan on the driver side would be in the upper position making the fan on the passenger side in the lower position.
This fan is a puller, meaning that it mounts between the radiator and the engine and pulls air through the radiator. You will need to make sure that you have enough clearance to install the fan. It is 3-3/4 inches wide, 18 inches tall, and... view full answer...
When choosing an electric fan for your vehicle you will want to make sure to get a fan that will give you the correct Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) for the size of your engine. The CFM is how much air is being moved through your radiator in one minute.
The typical CFM requirement for a 6 cylinder engine is 1,600 to 2,000. If your 1995 Ford Ranger is used for towing you will want additional airflow. It is always recommended to go with the highest rated fan. I am including a link to a FAQ... view full answer...
I think your best option would be the Derale 17 inch High-Output, Electric Radiator Fan w/ Aluminum Shroud # D16816. You will want to check the dimensions to be sure that this will fit behind your radiator, but it has the same size fan as the # D18217 that you referenced plus a shroud. view full answer...
The Derale Replacement Push-In Radiator Probe for Derale Single-Stage Thermostat Fan Control, part # D16736, is a thermostatic probe that is inserted into the vehicles radiator and connects to a thermostat switch. The probe will register the temperature of the fluid in the radiator and allow the switch to turn the fan on if the temperature exceeds 180 degrees, and will turn the fan off when the temperature drops to 165 degrees.

Although the Derale 17" High-Output, Electric Radiator Fan-and-Shroud Assembly - 2,400 CFM # D16919 is only designed to work as a puller application (behind the radiator) we do have an option for you.
The Derale 17" High-Output, Electric, Single Radiator Fan - 2,400 CFM # D16217 will work great as a puller or a pusher application (in front of the radiator) like you were wanting. It is worth mentioning that typically fans do work more efficiently as a puller than a pusher.

The best radiator fan for your 1989 Chevrolet Camaro would be the largest on you have space available for behind the radiator in front of the engine. With that being said, Derale has several electric fan options that will do a great job of keeping the 400 small block engine cool.
I recommend the Derale High-Output, Electric Radiator Fan-and-Shroud Assembly part # D16928. The overall dimensions of the fan assembly are 28-5/8" wide x 13-7/8" tall x 3-1/4" deep. The fan assembly will take... view full answer...
Radiator fans are not vehicle-specific so you only need to have enough room in your 2010 Chevy Silverado 2500HD for it to fit. The Derale 24" Dual, High-Output Electric Radiator Fan w/ Aluminum Shroud # D66831 you referenced measures 24" Wide x 15-1/2" tall x 4-1/2" deep and if you take a look at the cut out I added from the instruction manual you can see where this fan will need to fit.
This radiator fan moves 3,750 cubic feet per minute (CFM) of air which should be more than enough... view full answer...
If there is a fan clutch between the fan and radiator on your vehicle, then you will be able to turn the fan by hand when the engine is off and not running. If there is no clutch, the fan would be difficult to turn because you would have to turn the fan and the pulley, which are turned by a belt.
If the fan is turning freely with no clutch, then there is a problem with either the belt being loose or the pulley will need adjustments. A fan clutch will look like part # D22175, just as an... view full answer...
Adding an electric fan or fans is subject to how much space you have in the engine compartment. The first thing I would check is if your 2003 Sonoma has a fan driven by a serpentine belt (a belt that turns the pulleys of several components) or if it has its own belt.
If the fan is attached to the pulley for the water pump, you will not be able to remove it though the blades may be able to be removed. So if you find that your fan or blades can be removed and you can add an electric fan,... view full answer...

Going to a larger aluminum radiator will drastically help your 1965 Lincoln Continental stay cool.
If you wanted to try a different fan setup I would recommend you get rid of the mechanical fan you have that pulls air through the radiator and go with an electric fan setup with a shroud like the # D16826. This will pull a ton more air through your radiator than a mechanical fan at idle so it should work very well for you.
Fans that pull air through the radiator are much more efficient... view full answer...
The Flex A Lite Radiator fan setup part # FLX293 doesn't have specific fit information so you would need to compare it's dimensions to your radiator and available space for a fan.
This fan setup is 31-7/8" wide x 17" tall x 4-1/2" deep. If you have room for it, and it matches closely to your radiator it would be a great setup. view full answer...
