Default Cooling Fan Removal

Hey guys, quick question (and a quick response would be so apprecated)

I currently have the grill off the Jeep and I'm trying to wash out the radiator so I decided to pull the cooling fan out as well. I took the two screws (one from each side) off near the top and I thought that was it, but no matter how hard I pull it won't pop up, is there another screw at the bottom I need to remove?

Edit: I've unclipped the fan wiring so that isn't an issue

Hey Dremex there are those same plastic holders along the bottom hold the plastic of the fan shroud to the bottom of radiator. After you release them it will lift striaght up and out, it just sits in 2 v-grove brackets near the bottom of the radiator. See these two threads about it

Cool thanks! I gave up on it last night and sprayed out as much as I could through the fan and from the front. We're about to set off for a quick trip to the mountain trails so hopefully that was good enough, otherwise I'll refer back to the pictures you posted. Thanks a ton!
