SW86 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Has anyone here had their fan clutch bearing go out? yes the bearing that the fan clutch attaches to. It seems that its a dealer only or JY part. So since I ditched the fan clutch i don't really need that pulley there. Has anyone figured out a shorter belt to bypass it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skidoo_j Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 It's a standard water pump bearing. I pressed mine out and took it to the local bearing shop for replace. no autoparts stores listed it, but i'm sure if i'd taken it into somewhere like napa they could have replaced it too.

SW86 Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 thanks for the info but really id just like to bypass the pulley all together. I'm going to measure the route today and see if my local parts house has a belt in that size. if not, ill probably hit up a pull-a-part for a JY replacement. is the unit easy to replace? doesnt seem too hard. will any year XJ work? seems like it should Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
