Yeah, put a puller on it and put as much pressure as you can. (use a cheater bar if you need to) If it still doesn't come off, smack it with a sledge when you've got maximum puller pressure on it. Keep doing that. It will eventually come off...
If you've got the shroud off, you may as well cut it in my opinion.. it really aids any tasks/inspections/work to do with belts, water pump, fan, viscous hub. Especially if you're trackside and its hot, dusty and there's a million flies around. I...

something 🤬
The grease needs ooze like that when pressurized by a gun from all four pivots.
Try some fast pumps to maybe clear whatever's blocking the flow, otherwise take it apart and find the problem. Or maybe drive it around the block and try greasing it...
Went with the Amazon basics “dynamat” clone. Decent price and made a big difference. Can’t tell if it’s better/worse than the name brand stuff but used a box under the new carpet kit. Would guess slightly less for roof.
Ian, I just looked back through your post. This is fantastic. Short and sweet. You pointed out the spot I’m still pondering which is the A pillar. Slow and steady since there is very little space. Appreciate sharing.
Be sure to read converter and encapsulator primers instructions because some will promote rust on clean bare metal (paint manufacturer engineer specifically responded to this question in email). I used Eastwoods, also on frame is can of $5 paint...
