I'd rather not have to pay that much for something that I will only use this one time and that's it.
Its a large open end wrench that attaches to an air tool in a jack hammer type action to break it loose.

Wrench for Fan is 1 7/8 “ or 48 MM
Wrench for holding pulley is 54 MM.
Must use both wrenches to remove fan. This is the most difficult part of the water pump change

Wrench set is:

OEM part # 27141,, but not Ford part #,
OEM is the brand name of the wrench set. I borrowed one from Autozone.

The wrenches are basically open but only 3/8" thick to allow them to fit side by side in the close quarters between the water pump and fan.

Note this what I used on a 2000 7.3

Thanks for the info guys. I actually rented/borrowed a set from the local o-ry-lees. Have to throw down some cash, but if it's returned within 48 hours and all there, you get ALL of it back. So I told them I'd have it back by 8am tomorrow!!!
