I am in the middle of replacing my fan blade, however cannot seem to remove the nut right behind the blade! Are there any "tricks" to remove this, or am I looking in the wrong place? Please help...Adrian

O.K., O.K., I will show pity.
If you have the same pump as RR classics, do this: stuff a rag between the water pump belt and the fan pulley, this will jam any movement and you can use a large wrench to un-do the nut. I think I used a B.F. cresent.

Eric...shit, thanks. No wonder I couldn't find my post in the Disco section! LOL I had to do a search to find it. Thanks for the tip, I actually was able to finally take it off using a pair of large vice grips to trap the pulley. Thanks again.

Jeeez, that must be a B.F. vice-grip!
