Fitting a Heavy Duty Kenlowe cooling fan

After fitting the intercooler I decided to fit the 14,5 inch electric HD Kenlowe cooling fan I previously have been using on my other Land Rover in Africa. The fan was still in excellent condition and my only concern was the themostat unit. That one had been rattling inside the engine compartment for 90.000 km or so!

The fan I did use is the (old 1996) HD Series Land Rover Kenlowe cooling fan supposed to go in front of the radiator. However after fitting the full size intercooler there was no place anymore so I did design a bracket/frame to take the fan (see picture) and fit it behind the radiator.

At the top the frame is connected to the four bolts holding the radiator top panel. I decided to design it this way because the fan would move together with the radiator. So both units can never touch each other in case of shaking/vibration. At the bottom the bracket is resting inside the groove between radiator and bottom radiator frame plate. A bit like the way the cowl has been fitted on the Land Rover.

I did use basic steel profile and Mig welded it together. The joint does not look very smooth due to an empty C02 gas cylinder.

Two M8 bolts at the top keep the Kenlowe cooling fan in place.
