Question about adding an electric fan.
#1
Have a friend that had an electric fan added by the dealer for a 2004 Silverado to improve A/C performance at idle. I have a 2003 and would like to do something similar. Has anyone found a fan that can be fitted to the truck without a lot of modifications? Thanks for any help.

If you do a search you should find lots of info in this subject.
I went with the Flex-a-lite kit. The Flex-a-lite kit is really nice, easy, and moves a lot of air, but it's not cheap. You can do it much cheaper.
One popular fan to use are the ones off 1993 to 2002 F-bodys.
My A/C is ice cold all the time now, even in stop and go and at stop lights.
When not using the A/C the fans rarely come on, which has to help gas mileage.

Thanks for the quick replies. I was mainly interested in keeping the factory mechanical fan due to cost,and adding an electric fan to help out with idle and low speed A/C. This is what the dealer did for the guy with the 2004 when it was still under warranty. I believe it had to do with a TSB about the same problem I have. I assumed it was a GM kit and probably absurdly priced.
