    More pics, hard to find series on engine as it's compacted in engine bay no room to wiggle. Blue coloured machine is the same machine prior to painting orange.

    replacing old hydraulic fan on cat 246 skid steer

    Well l fitted shaft seal on hydraulic radiator fan motor and used gasket maker to replace internal figure 8 gaskets. As predicted it failed after 1hr. So ordering electric thermo fan motor and save $500+ . The fans on amazon that Shawn used look ideal. Thanks heaps for the tips.

    replacing old hydraulic fan on cat 246 skid steer

    I'll give the seal a go. See how it goes, not expecting miracles from an 18 year old part but worth a try. Keen to see how the electric fan conversion goes with Shawn.Might end up going diwn that path too. Or fork out big$ for a new cat one. Seems a lot for a bloody cooling fan though. Cheers
