It's held by screws to the radiator mount. Don't try to run without it. You will overheat easily. Absolutely necessary,

There are four bolts. The left lower is very hard to access.

Talked to a mechanic and he said he DOES NOT remove the bolt. There is enough room to remove the old fan and install the new.

I have a 2001 Cherokee and the fan shroud is removed by removing two screws (one at each side) on the top of the shroud. Look under the hose that goes to the coolant overflow to find them. Once they are out the top should be free. You can then pull up a little to free the bottom tabs that just sit in slots and then it is just a matter of pulling the shroud out from around the fan. It's not that easy but it can be done.

I've just had to remove and re-install mine to replace the water pump and it's no picnic.

On mine:

  • The lip on the right hand side was pinned under the upper radiator hose where it connects to the radiator
  • The lower right hand side had to be maneuvered around some component that I didn't bother identifying
  • And the worst part - the only way to completely remove it is to take the fan off of the water pump (there are other posts on how to do that)

A pox on whoever designed this damn thing... when mine came out the plastic tabs on top broke - I was able to pin it back in place by putting washers under the screws but having it in makes putting the fan back on about 100x more difficult than if it's off. Now I'm trying to find out if simply not putting it back in will have any negative impacts to the cooling system or if it's just a safety feature.

On my 2000 grand cherokee, It was in front of the battery on the fender wall. Remove battery and you should find it. It is under the bumper cover, under the passenger head light. You either have to remove the front bumper, or you remove the headlight and cut an access hole.
