Getting the Wheeling Fever

I installed a new fan clutch on my '98 trooper because the old one was making a scretching noise when ever it was cold outside. With the new clutch I can really hear the fan spinning while driving. It turns freely by hand with the engine off. Does it take a while for the bearings in the new fan clutch to wear in so the fan spins more freely with the engine running thus making less noise?
