Quick 3VZE Fan Clutch Question

Hey guys, I'm aware there are plenty of fan clutch topics but this is something I just wanted to get your guys opinion on before I go ahead. I'm stuck with a fan clutch that is stuck engaged so clearly its time to replace it. What i'm wondering is whether or not I should just got to my local junk yard and rip one out or just get a new one all together (Aisin of course). Currently unemployed so of course looking for the cheaper option. I just don't know if the fan clutches are prone to breaking down, we are talking about 10+ year old engine right so I would assume so.
Just want to know what you guys think, afterwords this thread can be closed.
Thanks.

A yard one may work ok or may not. Also, check the yard price with the new price. On some items, the yard price may not be a good "deal".

Yard price is $70 according to the guy on the phone, new from rockauto would be $160 after shipping.
