    I don't have a 3rd gen, but I don't see why not. As long as everything clears.

    I had to remove the fan and the pulley attached to it for my York install. Yes you have to de-tension the belts. If you don't you're not going to be able to reinstall everything and that's if you can get the fan off with the belt tension pulling on it. What you don't have to do is remove the shroud. Mine came out very easy with the space that is there.

    FYI: On the 3.4L 5VZ-FE, I don't think you have to loosen the belts as the fan is driven on the crank pulley and not used as an idler (looks like that in your pics). I removed my mechanical fan in my red 99 and I don't recall messing with the belts at all. (About to install an electric fan in the Hundy too!)
