Okay, here's the quick rundown... I got a 74 FJ55 about a week or so ago that has a 283 V8 conversion. It currently isn't running, but it was running when it was parked.
To make a short story long, here's the fan position with the 283 and the stock radiator:
There's no shroud, and it's a flexi-fan...
Anyway, I went to the pick-n-pull today to find myself a Taurus fan. I also got wetter than a drowned rat. Go figure that the only time it rains today is when I'm on a scavenger hunt... and we're talking not just light rain, but a torrential downpour.
The first fan I pulled had a little grating sound to it as the fan rotated, so I was kinda bummed since the others I had found were already pilfered. Then I turn the corner into the next aisle and there's one in primo condition (no noises) just dangling off the front. Score!
However, as I was tracing out the loom to get the stock plugs, I found a set of dual relays that run inline with the fan motor, so I went ahead and grabbed those too.
The one relay has '40AR' stamped on it, which I assume means '40 Amp Relay' and the other just has what looks to be a part number of 9102-25 and a manufacturer's stamp 'CD'. The two relays are also potted in epoxy.
Can I use them?
I'd be stoked if it were usable, since I got the whole assembly for $20.
