Re: Replacing BX fan w/electric fan
Couldn't continue from memory...had to walk out to the barn for a look-see...
No room to mount fan on operator side of radiator. The support structure for the dash/etc. is one-piece cast aluminum, and butts right up to the slide-out radiator screen. On engine side, removing fan blade assy is 4 bolts. Bolts go back in to hold pulley on water pump hub. I see 2 problems: With fan off, clearance between water pump hub and radiator looks to be under 2 1/2". You'd need to find a thinner electric fan than the one in your earlier post. The fan shroud is more than just a shroud. It's also the air cleaner cannister. You would want an electric fan that would fit inside without hacking up the shroud (didn't have my tape measure with me for shroud diameter or water pump clearance).
