[QUOTE="Silver2003Cobra, post: 11819895, member: 3143"] update.. there were 2 issues with my cooling fan.. #1 the electric motor was very hard to turn, and had a huge drag on it (guessing that the bearings in it are bad) and #2 the brace that goes around the blades broke, and it was rubbing against the shrould.. I went to a recycling yard and wanted to see if they had any 01-04 GT/Mach1/Cobra cooling fans (they are all the same) but the newest they had was a 2000 GT (different motor and it doesn't have the sensor that's in the newer cars) The guy said lets try something, he brought out a cooling fan assembly from a 2002 Lincoln Towncar.. hmmm same fan, same electrical connectors just longer wires (about 3" longer on one of them) but different shroud. I bought the Lincoln assembly, took it apart, installed the motor and fan in my car's fan shroud and bolted it back in my Cobra.. it works like a champ, WHOOO!! I'm back on the road for 62 dollars, instead of almost 300 dollars if I had to buy a new cooling fan assembly.. [/QUOTE]
