Radiator Fan Clutch

This video shows you how to install a new radiator fan clutch from TRQ on your 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier (4.0L V6). The radiator fan clutch relies on a temperature sensitive spring and a viscous fluid to operate effectively. When worn, it could stick and spin too fast, or stay loose and not spin enough. If the fan spins too early, or not enough, you could face too low or too high coolant temperatures, which could be problematic.

Estimated installation time for a professional technician is approximately: 1 hour 24 minutes
