I am trying to replace the Power Steering Pump (PSP) on my 2000 Safari which is AWD. I have really no idea how to get this PSP out. The chiltons manual I have is totally useless in providing much help.

I have so far removed the pulley - the shaft was broken so I just pulled it out since I was having such a difficult time removing the pulley - yes it is messy with all the fluid leaking out.

I then removed the three mounting bolts on the front of PSP (looking from the front of the van).

This is where I am now stuck. I think there may be another mounting bolt on the back of the PSP but I don't know where since I can't see nor feel what is on the back of the PSP. I found one nut (15mm) I could remove but it didn't seem to help the situation - it seemed to be directly behind the mounting bolt found on the right hand side of the pump as you look at it from the front of the van. There appears to be at least 2 hoses that will need to be removed as well.

Can anyone explain what I need to do to remove the PSP from the point I am now at? If you know of any diagrams, photos, etc that can show what I should do next please let me know. Any suggestions on the best way to access the bolts etc would be helpful - I can't believe how they've been able to cram the PSP in where it is.

Thanks so much,
John
