Hey guys,
So after working on this car for a few years over my weekends I finally got it running pretty good. But now my radiator fan is all wobbly. I added a video so you can see but i wanted some suggestions on how to fix this. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/AU-rxEC96Nc
I checked the center bolt and its tight.

That does not look like a screw on fan clutch that threads onto the water pump. This is the later version and it has been discussed that replacing the early water pump with one of the later ones, adding the fan clutch and maybe using the original fan and pulley is the solution. I don't know if the pulley and fan are transplants or you need different parts. Both my cars have the later water pump with the fan clutch that threads onto it.
Agreed with updating to the spin on design.
Sachs clutch, late fan.
I make E23 parts.
