The first time I had to remove the fan shroud on my 96 2.3 , to change the TB, I cut it in half after I got it out so it was then a bottom half and a top half, the two halves I held together with aluminum plate and screws, the screws on the outside and the plate on the inside except that I rivited the plate to the bottom half of the shroud. When the fan clutch failed a few months later all I had to do was remove the 4 screws from the outside of the top half and I could get to things without fighting the entire shroud at once. Sure made getting to the fan bolts easy.
