Put a wrench on the nut and hit it with a hammer, it usually takes a few tries but always works for me.

My idea worked on my dads truck but not on mine. I grabbed a piece of flat steel and a couple pieces of dowel then made a wrench for it. The steel/bolt deal is a good one if you don't have a welder.

I plan to replace water pump when I install the kegger. What is the distance between centers on this" Anyone know the distance across the two holes opposite each other? I have a few spanners, but don't know if they will fit or if I have to fab something like this.

Thanks.

You can use a flat piece of 1” x 1/8" flat stock with just one hole in the end for the bolt, The bar will rest on the fan nut for the other rest point, you will have room in there for a wrench as well. A nylon strap wrench or a rubber one will work on the pulley as well.
