yeah, you need to get the fan shroud out of the way first of course... you still have the stock shroud IIRC... it can sit on the fan while you remove the fan... I'm doing it all over on my 87 wagon today... belt shredded itself... I HOPE she did not damage the head driving with no belt... it was VERY COLD out, so that may be my saving grace...
