Archaic Aviator6.5L TD pusher need radiator fan, help
Hi everyone, I could use some help. I understand that the 1994 Breakaway 28le 6.5l GM diesel is probably the same Spartan Chassis that I have. I desperately need a radiator fan for this application. If anyone can help me find a salvage yard that may have a radiator fan for this model I would be most grateful. I admit that I do not know that much about Barth, but my 1994 Georgie Boy Swinger has evidently the same chassis as the 1994 Breakaway 28le 6.5l GM diesel. I have just finished overhauling the engine and upgrading the instrumentation on the Georgie Boy, then quite a fiasco with the hydroboost brake system. I got it all sorted finally, the engine purring, the brakes perfect, on my fifth and final test drive, even after doing my walk around (preflight) I had left an errant battery powered shop light somewhere above the radiator. It finally fell into the radiator fan and brought my high to the lowest low. I thought that finally my wife and I would be able to escape Covid for a while and do some camping. Well, there is no salvage yard that I have not contacted on the internet for RVs. Non, have any time to search for chassis types, or do not have 1994 Georgie Boys for salvage, I just happened to search for 6.5 pushers and found your web site. Any advice much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Gary CarterI'm blowing smoke here, but can the fan be remove from the hub. If so you could find a chev fan of the same size and mount it backward creating a pusher fan rather than a puller.
Second option use an electric fan or two. Good luck.

Tom and JulieJust buy a Flex Fan online. Measure the diameter, rotation direction and hole spacing. Not expensive.
