So today while rebuilding the fan clutch on our groups M35A3 the piston rod (P/N 4079-40642-01) got damaged. Won't explain how, but it was a duh moment.
This leads me to three possibility more questions.
Got one lead on a new clutch, but any leads on maybe just the piston rod? I hate to buy a whole clutch considering I just put a new liner into this one.
I can get the clutch to lock up which would make the fan run all the time. Any long term issues with running this way? It's primarily used for parades. We do drive 20 or so miles on the highway one way to get to the parades. Not a long term solution, but maybe enough to get us thru until we can find & afford a clutch.
While it would be nice, maintaining full stock under the hood may not be a necessity, so has anybody ever swapped to electric fans? Thinking of dual 12-16 inch fans.
Thank you
Mark
