Default A/C fan shreking

Ok the A/C fan is making a horrible noise. Almost sounds like a belt going bad. Does anyone know how the fans are constructed? Do the have Ball Bearings, or is it just a motor. I do know the 2nd fan has a smaller hump coming out of the back while the primary fan has a larger motor.

I was trying to see if it was worth it to try and take it out and clean it or just order a new one. Its to Fing hot to not use my A/C down here.

I bought an ebay fan and it's 30 bucks and works better than my stock one. I'll grab the link in a sec.

thanks I'll keep that in mind. I might be able to get a factory one for discount though.
