Re: Finally getting AC

Like I said, for 20 years, the 2 fans as they are have been more than adequate. They are pulling air (the one on the condenser is a pusher) and are run via a relay off a switch on the ignition circuit. Here in Houston, I let the thermostat do the hard work of regulating temp as opposed to a temp sensor turning them on and off: they just stay on. It just surprises me how much of a difference simply mounting the condenser has made. If I had the budget, I'd just get an an Aluminium CoolIt radiator and fan setup for this truck. For now, though, I have to go with what I got. My skill and tooling is enough to fab a decent shroud (at least better than what I have) so I'm not afraid to go that route.
