Does anyone know the new number for the clutch fan. The car is a 68 barracuda 340-s auto ac. Rock auto shows a couple and the number on the original isn't one of them B0775SC. It is a themal one. Thanks

I believe the direct replacements are no longer available and the replacement numbers are actually taller and may not fit behind all radiators

Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

replace the wp too while you are at it.
lost a rad because I didn't know.
the vibration caused by the clutch going out, hurt the bearing on the wp and I lost it a few months later.

The lowest profile ones they make are a jaguar application. I can't recall the part number off the top of my head, but a search on here should reveal the one you want since it's been brought up a bunch over the years.

Check the wp as mentioned.

Thanks for the replies. I found one that I could compare to the old one at advanced auto. It is about 3/8" shorter than the stock one. So it moves the fan that distance away from the radiator. It came with a bushing that adapts the center stub to fit. It is a heavy duty one, and the dia of the unit is bigger than the stock one but fit the original fan fine. It ends up with the fan about 5/8" from my three groove AC damper pulley. Made by Imperial/Hayden part number 215046.

Hayden Part # 2765

Shortest I know of.

Tell the counter person that number, if need be, they can cross it over to their part number.

Thanks for the reply. The one I got above is about as short as I could go. The fan is only about 5/8" from my three groove crank pully.

I had 1 from advanced auto several years ago, on a chevy truck. The clutch itself broke off the shaft, and the fan screwed itself into the radiator. It was about 2 months old and I had to get real ugly with the manager to get a replacement radator that also came from them. I put a flex fan on it from them and it came apart also. It choped the heater hose clean in half as it flung of into the wild blue yonder. I do not buy thinks that have a safety issue from advanced any more.

the short Jag clutch was for early BB b-bodies, IIRC. On my 68 360 b'cuda I used the 5 blade fan and clutch out of a late 80's, early 90's full size van. when used with the early water pump, it puts the fan exactly half in/ half out of the shroud.

if you still have the OEM unit that failed, save it, there is a rebuild service out there.
