Question Alternator Fan Nut Removal Help

Trying to remove the nut holding the alternator pulley and fan. So far I've stripped the allen hex nut in the middle. Any suggestions?

With it installed on the engine and the belt tight you might be able to loosen with an impact wrench. Depending on what part you want to reuse you might also be able to wedge a block of wood or something in the fan and use an impact.

Only way I've found is with an impact wrench.
