no I removed the radiator and the shroud. I can't get the fan/clutch assembly off of the shaft coming out of the water pump.

Stuck good huh? I know I'm going to hear it about this but,I usually take a small screwdriver and tap it in between the two. Work slow and alternate sides. Use an old screwdriver, the end sometimes breaks if you stsrt prying too hard.
