    Fan Clutch replacement

    I am going to replace my fan cluth this weekend. It says to take the belt off is there a reason for this? I'm just wondering because it looks like the fan clutch bolts into the pulley. Or does the pully come off? Any light shed on this would be great before I jump into this. Thanks.
