Water Pump Wrenches Update

I got to looking at my water pump and there is only one "Boss" to put a wrench on and that would be the the 48MM or 17/8 and that appears to be attached to the pump. Where does the other wrench go???

Are talking about the fan clutch wrenches? If so, one goes on the fan clutch nut and the other is a pulley holder.

Isn't a 55mm and 1 7/8 inch for the fan clutch removal tool?

Do you mean this one?
It spans across the 4 bolts that hold the pulley to the water pump.

A strap wrench or a big set of channel locks on the pulley will work too. Use rubber hose over the jaws on the channel locks so the pulley doesn't get buggered-up.
