What is the difference between the two fan clutchs? Price diff? (1 Viewer)

Hey everyone,
I am going to try replacing the fan clutch on my 87 fj60 in an attempt to solve the "getting hot at idle" issue. What is the difference between the two fan clutchs? Why is the price different?

Thanks,
Zack

Ah damm the link seems not to work! Well if you are bored, fill in 87 Land Cruiser, and punch in vehicle specific fan clutch, and you will notice two different fan clutchs with a different prices?

I'd recommend an OEM fan clutch. Purchase from cruiserdan, and it'll set you back less than $100 (don't remember the exact value). They are super rugged, last a long time.

OK, I seem to remember that when you go the OEM route, you need something else as well as the clutch? Does anyone know what I am talking about?

all you need is the OEM fan clutch......a smart guy would buy 1-2 extra nuts becaue they seem to get lost in the engine bay
