WTB: 91P8393 T4x short fan assembly - URGENT

[PsychBiller]

Fan is dying fast!!! It hasn't seized up--yet. A little lubrication hasn't helped.

Lenovo/IBM said the replacement part number is 91P9254, but I can't find any verification of that. The HMM for my T40 2373-72U says the part number is 91P8393, and that's the number on the fan assembly itself.

There are a zillion places and eBay sellers selling fans. I don't know who is reputable and who is not. Last time I bought parts from someone, I had a very bad experience.

Both of those FRU's are for the 'short' fan, so either will work. If you don't want to buy new from Lenovo, try this outfit - http://www.thermalfx.com/merchant2/merc ... gory_Code=

Thank you to the forum members who contacted me privately with offers. I've made a purchase from one of them, and am happily awaiting delivery of the fan assembly early next week.
