Fan Clutch removal

Hi,
I have a 99 F150 with the 4.2L. Does anyone have any advice on how to remove the fan and fan clutch? I tried searching but could not find anything. Your help is much appreciated.

You need a special tool it hooks on the pulley bolts and has a wrench to turn the nut loose.
Be careful it can be a real finger pincher. Check at you parts store you may be able to rent one.
look for a KD tool •Model: KDT-3472

Use a spanner on the water pump pulley and then take a wrench, pipe wrench or channel locks and remove the fan clutch from the pulley.

Thank you both for the advice. I just picked up the new fan clutch, so now I know what's going on.
