Place a large container under the vehicle to catch the power steering fluid. Remove the clamp from the fluid return hose and remove the hose from the power steering pump. Remove the bolt holding the pressure line to the power steering pump. Once the bolt is removed, move the line away from the pump. The line has two sealing washers that need to be saved for installation of the line or replaced if they show signs of wear. Loosen the adjuster bolt and pivot bolts on the pump. Once these bolts are loosened, the power steering pump can be moved slightly and the power steering belt can be removed.
Route the new belt and replace the two pivot bolts on the pump and tighten the adjuster. Install the pressure line to the power steering pump, making sure to use the two sealing washers. Install the fluid return hose back to the power steering pump using the clamp. Fill up the power steering fluid reservoir with fluid.
