1. Remove serpentine belt

2. loosen power steering pressure and return hoses

3. Remove nut from pressure line mounting on alternator bracket

4. remove power steering pump mounting bolts.

5. Lift pump assembly from engine mounting and remove hoses.

6. Reverse order to install. Fill and bleed system.

NOTE: A new or rebuilt power steering pump will most likely not come with a pulley attached. You will need a power steering pulley remover/installer tool to transfer the pully from the old pump to the new one.

If its a 4cyl 2.0 remove your wheel and shield and using a jack and a bar and chain to hold up the motor from the top lay bar across from strut to strut and secure to engine, use a jack under the engine and add pressure to remove the motor mount on that side. loosen the alternator and power steering adjusters, remove belts starting with the Pwr steering then waterpump / alt install in reverse order .. do all of them while you are at it cause its a job.. First match the numbers on the belts with the new ones to make sure they are correct. Autozone always gets it wrong.then you could be stranded..

xus LS 400 and locate the power steering pump pulley, fluid reservoir and pump on the upper front driver side of the engine.

2 Connect the pulley remove tool to the front of the power steering pulley. Brace the arms on the pulley tool on the **** of the pulley. Connect the metal key in the middle of the pulley tool to the nut in the middle of the pulley. Connect the power drill to the pulley tool and pull the trigger to remove the pulley securing nut. Remove the drive belt and the pulley.

3 Position the drain container under the power steering pump. Remove the drain plug from the bottom of the pump using the metric ratchet set. Let the fluid drain from the pump into the drain container. Replace the drain plug to the bottom of the power steering pump.
