Cooling fan

[92_ProjectJT]

I have a 1992 Ford ranger with the 3.0 V-6 and recently the cooling fan started rubbing on the power steering pump at the tip of the blades of the fan, is this a problem with my water pump set up, do i need a new one or will a fan spacer be a cheaper fix and still be reliable? Thanks for help.

The fan shouldn't be moving around at all.

Either the fan clutch has come apart or the water pump is hosed...
