Installation Procedure
Tools Required
J 41240 Fan Clutch Wrench

Tighten Tighten the bolts to 23 N·m (17 lb ft).
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems. 2. Tighten the fan and clutch using the J 41240 .
Tighten Tighten the fan clutch nut to 56 N·m (41 lb ft). 3. Install the accessory drive belt. Refer to Accessory Drive Belt Replacement in Engine Mechanical. 4. Install the upper fan shroud. Refer to Fan Shroud Replacement .
