Auxiliary cooling fan switch over????

I have a 90 XJ with the older 6 blade auxiliary electric fan. I am wondering if anyone knows if the newer 10 blade and it's housing will fit in replacement. The 10 blade is about a 1/2 inch larger in diameter, however I think, (hope) that there is no difference in the outside dimensions so the newer fan and it's housing can be slid in place.:dunno:

Anyone with experience with this???

Thanks,

it will drop right in. i have a '00 10 blade fan in my mj. the plug will be different though, you can cut/splice either the fan or the body side. i spliced in the body side connector off a junkyard xj. pretty easy to find around here, and the later model plug seems to be a much more rugged design.
the original 6 blade is pathetic compared to the cfm of the 10 blade fan. great upgrade, for sure.
 
Thanks guys, I thought it would. I'll change out the plug.

As always, this forum has been a source of good information.

Thanks again,
