Hepu from a site sponsor like Sobstory. Mine was $59.00 and took a couple of casual hours to do. As others stated, get the hoses while you're at it and the Haynes has a good write up.
I ran mine up on Rhino ramps, dropped the plastic undercarriage panels, drained the radiator and covered the radiator fins with cardboard to prevent damage when wrenching. Pop off the serpentine belt, unbolt the A/C compressor (DO NOT disconnect the hoses) and gentle swing it up and out of the way. Remove the hoses to the pump, unbolt the pump and wiggle it off. Gently polish the holes in the block that receive the o-ringed water pump pipes with some fine emery paper. Transfer the pulley to the new pump. I used a thin coat of RTV to hold the gasket in place on the pump. Everything else is the reverse.
Regards
Peter (Western MA USA)
