I have a T43 model number 2668-6DU w/ ATI X300 graphics,
is it possible to replace the fan w/ the one for T42 w/ ATI R9600M?
I think the size of the two fans are identical, the only concern I have is not knowing if X300 and R9600M has the same height,
and if the fan's copper part that covers GPU has the same thickness.
Is it safe to replace the fan in T43 with the fan for T42?

I would say that is OK to do that. Since I've a T42p with a T43p heatsink (M24: FRU 26R9074) with FireGL T2 graphic card.
You may want to look on eBay for FRU 26R8197 since it covers the northbridge chip too and you would have a cooler T43.
