1949 fan removal from hub/bracket

[Automotive Stud]

I have this fan, I think it's '49 car, I want to remove the shaft from the cast mounting bracket. It doesn't have pinch bolts like the earlier style fan I'm used to working on. I assume I can heat the bracket and press or hammer out the shaft from the rear?

If it's anything like the last one I did, you will need a press. I'm sure you know that shaft is part of a replaceable bearing assembly that is still available.
