My question is most of the fan spacers I see say, for flex fan, I want to use the orignal fan,does someone have a spacer for this? Thank you. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | Same thing. There are 2 different bolt patterns. Most universal spacers are made for any pattern.

OTOH, the 55-57's had a factory arrangement that moved the rad back to the correct close space and you might be able to work that out from pics in the assembly manual Bill | | |
