fan clutch

[jeepkiller]

i was in a bind and needed a fan clutch for my lx450 went to auto bone heads and gave me one that they said fits the lx but it was for 91 landcruiser ...rig i had before.. so i got it cause we were hittin the trails that week end ...now i dont know if this is a coincidence but i was not running warm and a/c was fine on trail no more than 10 15 mph but on the way home doing 55 60 it started getting a lil warm and cut of a/c so now i changed thermostat and did a flush and after drivin about 30 min at 55/60 the air cuts out again but temp looks fine still a lil new with the lx need feedback thanks

Might be Your low on freon...unless your engine temp is at 224 iirc that is the cut off for the AC.
Normally the fan clutch is no longer working at 60. Could be a rad. Issue if it's only at those speeds.

The 1FZ is fan dependent at highway speed, especially with load, hills, A/C, etc. Drain the fluid, refill with thicker, what clutch?

it is a autozone aftermarket just wondering if there is a difference because l/c was a 4.0 and lx is a 4.5

I was referring to the old clutch on the rig. The 3FE clutch differs in mounting/spacing, wont fit.
