Have you tried putting the old water pump back on the engine and removing the fan in situ?

Here's the way to do it. Get a strap wrench, hold the pulley with it and turn the big nut at the same time. RH THREAD FOR US VEHICLES. I was mislead and had a hell of a time. As viewed from the front of the engine, it's a right-hand thread!!!
