I've never tried changing one of these. How hard is it to do? o No: What all do you have to remove in order to change it? My engine is the 430 with A/C
Im not sure but I think you will have to loosen the bolts on the alternator and A/C compressor because the power steering belt is the closest to the engine and the only way to get it on in one piece is to loosen the others. If its anything like my 455's there will be a nut behind the pump that is on a stud to hold the pump securely to the bracket. Loosen that and two of the bolts closest to the water pump side of the bracket. Then you should be able to move the pump up and down to increase and decrease the tension on the belt so you can replace it. Hope that helps. :TU:
Just like Rob said, all the other belts have to come off in order to access the P/S belt. Mind as well replace them all if they're going to be off anyway.
