Detailed Description

Hayden 2582 is a thermal fan clutch engineered for import cooling systems that rely on temperature-based fan engagement. It uses a standard-duty design, aluminum housing, and a flange mount with M6 x 1.0 threaded holes for a secure installation on the correct fan drive assembly. With a 3.86 in. fan bolt circle, 2.06 in. mount diameter, and 0.94 in. pilot diameter, this unit is built around the dimensional requirements commonly found on Chevrolet Tracker, Geo Tracker, GMC Tracker, Suzuki Sidekick, and Suzuki X-90 cooling setups.
