Another lesson: Don't order the fan blade from rockauto.com. It looks like it fits, except that the fan blades are backwards.

Its funny how easy it is to hear a description of a problem as a vibration, and assume it something that allows the vibration...instead of assuming that its an impact noise instead, despite how its described.

Whenever people describe a problem to an online audience, they sometimes do not realize that its the same as calling your mechanic, and asking him to diagnose the issue over the phone...instead of bringing it into the shop, etc.

Online people will take a crack at the issue, but you do have to take it all with a grain of salt.

The blades are typically reversible, so they can be used in a push or pull mount position....so you can typically reverse it to what you need.
