    i jammed a wrench in one of the pulleys to keep it steady to wrench the bolts off the fan clutch.. could probably get away with doing that in reverse

    i probably should have just asked you HUh? thought you might be getting sick of me :eek: thanks, I read somewhere that theres a tool you need. I've never done it so I wanted to be prepared for the job.Do I need to preload the spring on that clutch? talk to Billy
