Need help with the fan blade assembly - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Yesterday I found a fan shroud and that was good. Today I removed the fan blade and clutch and realized the fan blade does not fit well in the fan shroud, too big. Does anyone have the measurements and a picture of the fan blade setup I need. The good thing is it gives me time to clean the front frame and suspension. The bad thing it pi**** me off, but I will get over it.
I appreciate all the help I get from all of you. This is the best board (forum) I have ever been subscribed to and I thought I had been on the best. Thanks.

Mine is an 18" dia. OEM 7-blade clutch fan (sorry, no pics). Shroud for 4wd is deeper than for 2wd - did you get the right one?

I did the research enough to get the 2WD shroud. I just measured my 7-blade fan by sitting it on the #4 & 5 blades and measuring to the top of the #1 blade and it is 19" and that probably is not going to work in the 19.5" shroud opening. Time to get a 18" 7-blade fan. Thanks for your help Stocker.
