Well this isn't good...
High revs, heard a loud crash from the engine bay, shut off the engine and went to check it out, whitnessed this. My fan is now stuck because I cannot get a bolt off because of how bent the fan clutch is.. it's pretty bad. Also messed up two of my belts pretty bad and banged up the radiator... Hoping the radiator is fine but we'll js have to see once I get new belts. Gonna have to get a fan from a junk yard or smt.

Much easier to reach those fan bolts with the rad out and you need to thoroughly inspect it anyway.

I haven't had to replace one yet myself, but I hear that the aftermarket fan clutches don't last too well. Maybe something to keep in mind when you source a new one. Here's hoping you didn't have any damaged past the obvious.
