Hello,

Here are the torque specifications for the water pump on the Bronco 2.9L:

Water Pump to Front Cover : 9-12 Nm (7-9 ft lb)
Water Outlet Connection : 9-12 Nm (6-9 ft lb)
Water Jacket Drain Plug : 20-25 Nm (14-18 ft lb)

Be sure to work on the vehicle's cooling system when the engine is cool.

Here is a helpful guide of water pump replacement:

I have attached the water pump replacement diagrams below.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
