Proprietary OE Fixed Design

GMB has supplied and worked with OEMs for years and knows most fan clutch issues relate to noise or oil leakage. To prevent oil leakage, GMB Fan Clutches include an oil seal on top of the rotor. GMB also revised the design of the oil seal from a single oil seal to a double oil seal and expanded the return hole to retrieve all oil from the rotor.
