So I was heading into work and the engine started making the gawd awful banging and rattling, so I cut through 3 lanes of traffic to get to the curb, get out and lift the hood and find the center of the hub on my 4 blade fan has split in two and is about a millimeter from coming off and going through my radiator.

So what would have caused this to happen? I have already ordered the aluminum 2 blade style from Mac's, is there anything special I need to know to install the new 1 piece aluminum fan?
