Answer
1. Take timing cover off. 2. Take motor mount off. 3. Take harmonic balancer off. 4. Take water pump hosing off.(7 bolts) 5. Take timing chain techner off. 6.take three nuts off water pump, pull water pump out and replace.
sounds like the above answer was confused with a chrystler product...you shouldnt listen to people like this.........they do not know about the simplicity of gm products...and who puts 7 bolts on a coolant hose..PLEASE!!! there are only a few bolts, no need to undo hoses, just pop belt off (let dangle) and unbolt the water pump,after draining coolant to a suitable level, replace pump and gasket (with sealant) and reverse dissassembly (new pump does not come with pulley, so be shure to swap it out to the new pump)
