Final Update:

New fan from host installed. Good news, old fan came off pretty easy. First tug on it and no movement. Tapped around the hub, sprayed some penetrating oil on the alternator threaded shaft, did a few applications, waiting 10-15 mins. Next pull and it came off with about 3 tugs with my hands.

New fan went in, all 6 shims used! Nice tension (4 shims inside, 2 outside).

Going to get original fan refurbished (new hub) with Joe Leggs. Will get that sent out over the weekend (he said about three weeks to turn it around). Will keep the aluminum aftermarket fan on for now - keep original to replace when I wish to do so.

Thanks to everyone who commented, great help. Feels good to have that done. Runs quiet, all is good!!

FYI - I have a pic of the new fan installed, but getting error when trying to upload.
