Fan wobbly and making noise

Hi,

If the mount is tight and the fan is wobbling, then the bearing in the motor is likely bad. Is it possible for you to record and upload it so I can see and hear it?

If you agree that it needs replaced, here are the directions for removal and replacement. The attached pics correlate with the directions,
