Pretty sure they’re made to order. At least mine was when I got it. I’d contact Joey or Landtank directly and inquire.

Thank you. I did awaiting response. However, the premise of my initial post is to allow for installation of the SC pending the orange fan clutch modification. I currently only have the TRD fan spacer, my original 1FZ fan and the V6 (old pre-runner fan).

Search/read through this thread as well as the one below. Lots of discussion on this topic. In short, just like @JM74 and @cruiserdan have said, the 16361-65020 fan will work just like the original TRD fan if not slightly better. You can get an Aisin brand off of Amazon.

RADIATOR FAN FZJ80 - long

I have reviewed the threads on radiator fans, and have done some preliminary studies on the 3 busted ones I now own. It would appear that many theories abound on which fan is better and why, not sure many of them reflect current theory and practice with regard to their application. I am going to...

Yes in short, but I wouldn’t suggest running 16361-65020 without Ricks orange fan clutch or some custom spacer that isn’t the TRD one supplied in the SC kit.

I ran a 16361-65020 with the TRD spacer for around 8 years before I switched to the machined orange clutch Rick came up with.

Looks like Dan beat me to it but you can run it with the TRD kit spacer.
The orange clutch fan, is a game changer. The amount of air flow after install is impressive. The Roar at startup!
I machined my own clutch fan because they were out of stock. However, reaching out to Wits End or Land Tank is a great idea.

I meant 16361-66020, my bad. I have never run 16361-65020.

This is the info I was waiting for!
Thank you so much guys! The help is greatly appreciated!

I'm currently out of stock on the orange fan clutches as I sold the last one this week. I'll be ordering 4 more clutches tomorrow. The way this works is if someone wants one for the diesel engine it gets shipped to them immediately. If someone wants one modified for a SC it gets shipped to my machinist who then does his thing to the flange and then sends the clutch to you. So the SC version has a week or two delay.

Looking for some clarity on the idler pulley orientation, is everyone’s pulley mounted this way? Thanks in advance!

Smooth pulley should have the “closed“ surface facing the radiator.

My original one was mounted this way and when I changed both SC pullies as maintenance it started wearing the edge of the belt with the new ones mounted the same way. I went just back to my old set up and so far so good.
