Did you start? You haven't shown any pics of the new parts..just the boxes. Or did I miss that.

 

Sure did. And for the last 2 ****ing hours I have been trying to remove the stupid cooling fan. I put this thing on and it still will not come loose. If I remember correctly it is reverse thread correct?

 

Put a large adjustable on the fan clutch so it's sticking straight up. Put a 1/2" breaker bar in the belt tensioner hole and push the bar to ADD tension to the belt. Smack the adjustable toward the passenger side sharply. This should break it free pretty easy.

32mm (I believe) and smack it with a hammer quickly to the pass side or, I believe AZ has the FC tool to hold the fan and keep it from moving. Another trick is an air hammer and long chisel blade in it, place it close to the edge of the nut and pull the trigger quickly. If I remember it's lefty but I've got a 50/50 shot at being right on that. I did all that crap a year ago, and it's been a long year.
