There are other options available. There are a plethora of efans out there. If you go with another, make sure it puts out at least 1100cfm

good hell, i just when in to my local checkers the other day because i too need a new one. they said it was like $120 for the whole fan or like $80 for just the motor. glad we don't have those prices you have, i would never get to do anything to my jeep.

Whow, that is a lot of money for a used one.
I bought mine (a OEM fan) for 25 euro's at an used Cherokee part (web)shop including 3 months warranty...
