Nice! I have the exact same machine and I’m going have to make one as well, once I get it back from the dealer for its 20hr maintenance. Thanks for the idea!
@@FrontierEric nice choice ! Love my lil scout. I had a older 8x8 that I done up on the channel where I like to go 6x6 is easier for getting around and thanks !

Just get a 3 inch inline blower
Looks like it'll work great! I just bought a beat-up 2015 Argo 750HDi that I'm going to do a complete frame out restoration and referb on. It didn't come with a brake fan either. I'm going to put the brake fan I'm going to make on a switch instead of the ignition. That way, it's not drawing from the battery at start up or if I'm running other accessories and don't need the fan constantly on.
@@2artactical55 that’s a good idea too to toggle it, I like the constant cooling cause Argo was always famous for running hot lol! I don’t run any other accessories really, maybe winch in a pinch.
@muddythumper8152 of for sure. The more cool air entering the engine compartment, the better. I don't have a backup pull start for mine and have had my battery level go very low in the woods at night with lights on. If there was a constant on fan running the moment I turned my key on, it wouldn't have started. My engine is liquid cooled and has great airflow from the radiator fan as is. Eventually, I want to install an alternator to keep up with the power draw demands I want to put on it. I now carry one of those pocket-sized battery jump starters under the seat. I just like to be able to shut off what may not be needed on start-up if I'm in a low battery pinch. A hood scoop fan would also be on my list of stuff to pull more hot air out of the engine bay on demand.
