I've never had an Aerostar in my stable but there should be No special tools needed. I no doubt has a fan clutch and the four nuts or bolts need to be loosened before you take the belt off.

Then, fan clutch and even the plastic shrowd come up and out all together. Take care NOT to damage the radiator while doing this. T

The fan clutch or fan and clutch assembly is threaded on to the hub of the water pump. I usually leave the belt(s) on while I’m trying to loosen the large hexagon you see between the pulley and the fan. That’s to help hold the assembly still as you’re breaking it free; once you bet it to move it usually wines off by hand.
The hub is also left threaded as in you run the hexagon backwards compared to a regular bolt.
