Default VM Diesel Fan Clutch that works a treat

after trying to get my jeep to run cooler in the summer heat I decided to buy a new fan clutch a SEVERE DUTY one.
think it has sorted my problems.

normally on a 30c day at 100-110k the temp gauge would sit on 100-105c AC off and 105-110+ with the AC on.
but today it was 30c out side, traveling down the highway at 110k with the AC on it only reached 95c around town it now doesn't go over 80c

this is the clutch I brought

they are more difficult to fit in past the shroud as they are about 4 times thicker than the standard one.
it doesn't move the actual location of the fan

I can actually feel the air being pulled through the front grille now and feel the hot air being blown out the bonnet scopes, I could feel it before but it now has a lot more force.
