I use the Wards and they do what they are supposed to do.

I have no experience with the Love Jugs.

Wards.....hands down, look better, work like they are supposed to, and if you ever have any problem with them, they stand behind their products.

I have the Ward's fans that I installed 3 yrs and 38,000 miles ago. I'm very pleased with their performance and reliability.

Installed the Ward's fans on my 14 Ultra Classic about 5000 miles ago. The best mod I've done so far.

I have the Harley parade fan on my 12 sg. Have wired to the aux switch so I can turn it on/off as I desire. Works great

Wards.

Ask for the oil cooler thermostat from Jason as well.

You won't regret it.
