Does this model have 3 belts or 1 runs all ? If you have 3, you have to take alt. belt off 1st, I not 'member if pwr.steer next or a/c. Either way, there are top & bottom bolts on all components to be loosened 1st. Then there may be adjusting bolts w/lock-bolts also, that have to be loosened after mount bolts. Loosen lock-bolts, then adjusting bolts to loosen belts. For $14.00, you can rent "Mitchell1 Repair Manual" for 1 week. @ mitchell1.com. Go to "online Manuals" & follow instructions to rent manual for your vehicle. The good thing is it will give you an illustrated pic. & show you everything you need to do this if I did not explain it well enough. Make sure you ck. this site 1st, there are some helpfull instructions on sidebars here on carpros. You may want to exaust that 1st. Good Luck. Let us know if we can assist you further.
If you have 1 belt runs all, you only need to put a long ratchet on "Tensioner Pulley, disingauge by moving whichever way loosens belt, remove & replace belt & release tensioner.
