Explorer Clutch Steel Fan

[RRR162]

I have Been going crazy about this fan install.. Question ? is it installed in the right direction?
Thanks for any help... its been a while since I removed from explorer

Yes.
The fan rotates the opposite direction of crankshaft rotation. The concave side of the fan faces the engine. The fan looks to be 1/3-1/2 depth into the shroud. Everything look perfect.

And with most fans, but especially Explorer fans, if you turn the engine on, you’re gonna feel a heavy breeze coming out the back of the fan and radiator.
And you should be able to feel air flowing over your hands when you put it in front of the radiator.
On that fan, it would/should be pretty obvious if it was working or not.
