I have a bit of experience with the Intrepid fans with good success. My first one came from Ramchargers back in 2000. It lasted 15 years before it started the infamous squealing on one of the two fans. I ordered a replacement from Rockauto. There are many manufacturers producing replacement versions. The version made by Four Seasons is outstanding.
Both of the electric motors are sealed units. The OEM units were not sealed and I didn’t not see any other aftermarket versions with sealed motors. I highly suspect the reason my ramchargers fan failed was from dirt/dust getting into the fan motor (unsealed). The fan blades are also quite different in shape and size. It is a high quality piece and it keeps my temps cooler than my last intrepid fan did.
