- hello youtube,
for the last few weeks ive been hearing alot of fan noise from the land cruiser, even when it was stone cold. i suspect the fan clutch was acting up, so i decided to get a new one. cheapest toyota one i found was $160ish so i turned to rockauto for one for $100 shipped! great deal right? check out the video to see what happens.

Thanks for the video and the confidence that ensued. Just wanted to say,that I ended up being able to remove the fan and clutch out the bottom of the vehicle, without having to disconnect or remove anything other than that. It just takes a bit of observant manoeuvring. But definitely easier. I then decided to have a look at the clutch itself. Came apart easily,but the screws are easily stripped,so beware folks. I damaged one. The first one. Gave the inside of clutch a thorough clean with various chemicals to remove Al old silicone and residue. Refilled with 15k CST silicone diff oil $20, and good as new, and certainly better than it's ever been while I've owned my wagon. Damn site cheaper than a new clutch. Cheers, and thank you for your video efforts.
I had almost the same problem on my LC100 and I was able to rebuild the fan clutch myself. You can refill the clutch with silicon fluid
Chow - this is exactly what youtube needed - thank you!
Great job! How's the new radiator?
Great video man, long time fan of your channel here and I just did this on my 2000 LC, your other videos helped me change what I needed to finally get it running great with no squeaky noises or squeals anymore 👍🏼
Great Video!! Just completed the fan clutch replacement with the Aisin fan clutch from Rock Auto. Thanks Again!!
Your the best! Super helpful as always!
Fantastic guide
Sweet, I’ve been looking to change mine out soon this will help thank you
Thanks, appreciate you and these great videos!
Thanks for all your great videos they are really useful, have you done one yet on upgrading or adjusting the torsion bars?
At first glance, Partsouq might be the best deal on these clutches at the moment. Thanks for the video Chow. Very much appreciated.🤙
Tu video fue de mucha ayuda gracias. Tengo el mismo problema con mi lexus lx470
Many have started to wonder if Chow still cares. Hope you good.
As one who did this, i went OEM those nuts between the fan and motor are knuckle busters. Use abundant anti freeze lubricant. Requires a long shaft closed end ratchet wrench and be sure to jerk to loosen otherwise they strip. A good long screw driver to keep it from spinning helps.
Thanks!
great vids - thx
I would have just left it alone lol. Sounds cool and more cooling
Best videos
Heap more power and better mpg. Thanks Chow
Excellent video! will be a big help when I have to replace mine
Thanks Bro for the helpful video! Bought a 2003 LC 3 months ago and just finished my first big project, replaced the AC compressor! Noticed some squeaking noise after installing the AC compressor, could be a coincidence, any suggestions? Thank you
I did my homework and aisin is own by totota same as denso
Timing kit water pump and fan cluth are the same
They can be rebuit by separating both half's and adding oil back into it. Toyota sell fan clutch oil
checking my fan now!
my 2003 takes forever to warm up……
what radiator did you go with there?
I've installed the same type of fan clutch you have, now the car's heat is more than usual.
@Chowcares, can't you fix the old fan clutch by adding more silicone? Silicone is relatively cheap. Not OEM but the silicone they use "Factory Team Silicone" which is relatively cheap. So you can now have 2 clutches that work.
But one thing is clear a bad fan clutch is one that does not allow you to spin your fan at all at startup.
just did this replacement because my clutch is slipping and would not grab on cold starts.
Any updates on the new fan clutch? Is it still doing it's job? Some say put in OEM Toyota clutch and not after market parts. Just curious if the Aisin clutch you purchased through RockAuto is still doing good as I'm debating if I should go Toyota or order one too
Aisin is Toyota OEM. It’s the exact same. Aisin is owned by Toyota and they make the parts for them, only sometimes Toyota parts get labeled Toyota instead of Aisin just for branding
Dude clean under the cover
Is there an Electric Fan kit for the 100 series? Wouldn't swapping it out for an Electric one give you more power and better gas mileage?
