I faced a significantly stuck fan 24mm nut when I did this project. I found it helpful to place the end of the pulley wrench under the edge of the AC bracket to provide more leverage and then carefully work the nut out with a 24" breaker bar. Be careful not to push too hard or you could damage the AC bracket and or pulley.

Had the same problem and found the same cure. Well, it did take two men on the bar and one guy holding the factory wrench in place. I believe that PO's mechanic had tightened nut using air gun despite the very low torque recommendation in the manual.
