Replaced the radiator and wanted to replace the old, worn out, OEM fans. I found an OEM replacement by Dorman but I got them in and not all the mounting tabs lined up....so I sent them back. Are there any other options or suggestions or am I stuck with an aftermarket fan?
 
You may have just got a set that was cut badly, Dorman is made in China so... I would bring the old fans to the parts store and just make sure they match up with the replacement unit before you buy it.
 
Or by a fan from the dealer get a salvage yard, send it back if it doesnt fit, get a cheap slim fan works fine too probably cheaper than a oem fan.
 
You should only use slim fans when you physically can't fit the stock fans. The stock fans flow much more than your average slim fan and have built-in shrouds to help direct air.

If the old fans still work just clean 'em up and throw 'em back in.
 
Ill try to find another one then, I want to stay with the OEM set up if possible. Old ones do work but are beat up, old, and rusted...I just rather play it safe and knock this out now while the car is torn apart.
