We are in the process of building a fan kit that will drop in on the TBSS.

You could do it by fabbing up some braces and buy a Flex-a-lite stand alone controller. There are some problems going through the computer so you would be better off with an individual controller for the fans.

You should have the connections already to hook up the SSR electric fan and there is a member on the SSRfanatic.com board that does an aux fan to back it up. Go check the board, if you were closer I would say stop by and we could compare my SSR to the TBSS to see if it would plug into your stock harness.

I just bought an electric fan from SDPC and used radiator zip ties to hold it on. I bought a t-stat switch for it as well. Actually looks somewhat factory..

If you're not afraid of a little build-up, I'm not having any luck selling my set-up that was on my Titan. I was about to part it and put the fans and controller on Ebay.
