I have a factory tow package and listed with”Heavy Duty Cooling “on build sheet and NO 850 watt fan… I got the typical BS from Jeep that only get bigger fan with tow max.
So ask them what is in a heavy duty cooling package that is listed on my original window sticker from the day I bought it. There’s only one radiator and two fans so this does not have a heavy duty cooling system. It’s just another BS from Jeep. another perfec, example of talking out of two sides of their head.
If it's truly factory installed tow package....not dealer added receiver....you are due 1 850w fan. Fight this.

Did you actually check the fan...it says 600w?

Best way to know that is plug in the VIN in the build sheet site.
People could learn so much about their Jeeps that way.

Why is that BS?
Gone are the days of heavy brass radiators where it's a big money and big weight difference between a 2 row core and a 3 row core.
Even in the 1970s a fan and shroud were sometimes the only differences between HD and standard cooling.
Fan and alternator are the differences, there's really little reason to have a smaller radiator in the non-tow package Jeeps. Doesn't make a lot of economical sense these days.

The only thing that's BS is the only Desert Rated Jeep doesn't come with heavy duty cooling. =D

Easy enough mod at least.
