    another fan clutch question

    Has anyone successfully "rigged" a fan clutch so that it will not slip and always be in "cooling mode" ? I am looking to rig mine until my electric fan gets here and I am taking a quick trip this weekend before they will arrive. Thanks,

    Brand name doesn't concern me...

    What is better to have in a winch? A series wound motor, or a permanent magnet. I have never had a winch on my truck before, and though I know what the difference in the two types of motors is, I cannot decide which is better for the application. Any advice is appreciated.
