Electric Fan Project

My plans to install an electric fan, and I don't want to use the Ford Taurus E-Fan
I am planning to install a electric fan.
This fan is almost a perfect fit to the Jeep Wrangler TJ radiator and it also has its' own solenoid pack with both HI and LOW inputs and outputs all you need to do it wire up the low temp sensor high temp sensor as well as the AC switch to the HI speed relay and your all set for electrical. The one this that is stopping me at this time is getting the right LOW and HIGH water switches. But I might be able to pull something out of the Jeep liberty or another Jeep that only uses own electric fan.
Here is picture of the solenoid pack:
Ok so I looked through my photo albums and could not find one so I will have to get one and update this page.
One day I was walking about my favorite bone/junk yard and I came across an interesting cooling system from Toyota
As you can see here this is a Toyota water powered cooling fan. It looks like the water pump pumps water through this fan housing which in-turn moves the fan blades. I think this is a GREAT way to save on the power draw that a electric fan may draw from the alternator. But I can see other issue like more push the water pump has to work to move water around. I still thinks it's something that I would like to investigate for more detail.
