Fan clutch pulley removal

I cant get the fan clutch off. The four bolts behind the fan are removed but the clutch is still in there. There is a hex spacer behind the clutch. Does this hafta come off? Taking a break will check later.
Thanx

The hex thing you see is a 36mm nut that holds the clutch to the water pump pulley.

Put the 4 bolts back in so you can use a bar or a large screwdriver between 2 of the bolts to keep it from turning while you use a large enough wrench or special fan tool to loosen the nut.
