Will this work to remove the fan clutch?

[5Toes]

I need a 32mm wrench for upcoming projects, and this seems to be one of the nicer/cheaper ones on eBay

Is it too thick though?

or should I get this cheaper looking style of wrench? I guess quality doesnt matter THAT much... dont use it that often! lol

Don't people normally use those super skinny bike wrenches?
9 bucks on amazon:

i bought a big craftsman for $30. truck wrench.

works just fine, but it it is a BIT tight. i just knock it with a rubber sledge and off it comes.

I only ever use a thin fan wrench if I also have a holding tool of some sort. If not just grab a regular 32 mm or even a 1-1/4" which might be easier to find, and just whack the thing with a hammer

Bicycle wrench. $15 at my local bike shop.

Factory pliers seem to be made just for this purpose as they are utterly useless elsewhere :rofl:

So the second link I posted is a good deal? It is much longer than a bike wrench

I just use a 32mm I got in a big ass set from harbor freight. Little tight, but works a charm. I can promise you the HF one is thicker than the one in the first ebay link you posted. Even though that picture looks really, really photoshopped.

Harborfreight website is of course down. Ill just grab the second one, nice and long, guaranteed to work

i used a 32mm bicycle wrench, screw driver trick didn't work for me i borrowed my local euro shops pulley lock style wrench.

[glucklich21]

I used just a normal crescent wrench and a few whacks with a hammer. It fits and worked great.

Used a wrench that was too big for the job, and still managed to get it loose...why is this a hard thing for some people?
