Just glad I wasn't poking my head under the hood revving the engine when that happened.

BTW, that didn't just go through the flat steel, it also went through the under hood reinforcement! I had to remove it with a hammer!

This fan was on my truck when I bought it but I sure won't use anymore! They should be pulled from every shelf.

Anyone that is using one of these, I suggest you take it off now and throw it away.

Yep that be the one
