curious .. here they come in Diesel and not in gassers ..
I "think" they only were found on gas/petrol vehicles with rear ac here, but don't quote me on that! ;p

I didn't take any photos when I did this project, sorry. But basically you unmount RB#2 from the fender, pull the bottom cover off, and use the factory replacement connectors whose part numbers I posted above to populate the CDS fan relay socket (yes, it's the same relay p/n as the main EFI relay) and one of the spare fuse locations. I ran one side of the fuse to the 10mm hex bolt in the relay block (+12v supply) and the other side of the fuse to one of the relay contacts. The other relay contact goes to the York compressor. One side of the relay coil is connected to ground and the other coil connection is in series with the pressure switch and an on/off dash switch (labeled "OBA"), which then connects to one of the ignition switch circuits that is live whenever the ignition switch is in the "on" position. All pretty straight forward really. The only tricky part, if you are not familiar with Toyota electrical connectors, is that you've got to pop off the white plastic retainer from the relay socket before you insert the terminal contacts. A dental pick works well for this, but still requires a gentle hand so as not to break anything. Details on how to do this are somewhere in the FSM or EWD. Also, the factory replacement connectors come with 12AWG wires attached - large and stiff and kinda hard to work with in the tight confines of the relay block. I used 18AWG for all my wiring.
Hope this helps.

Well I bought the JDM fan from SOR and just added a relay, got power from my aux. fuse panel and added a Toyota switch to my dash. I decided I wanted the fan to go on when I wanted it to go on. Works perfect after a 3000ish mile drive to Yellowstone from LA at the end of August. Nary an issue.
If I had to guess I would say 12" but I'm not sure and the truck isnt here to check it.
