I am removing the power steering pump and not quite sure what all needs to be removed to get it out. If someone could point me in the right direction to get the step-by-step procedure and diagram/video. Much appreciated.

Good morning,

You will need to pull off the pulley first before being able to remove it.

I attached the procedure below for you to view. You can rent a puller and installer for the pulley at a parts store.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

How do you get the factory line off?

You take a pair of side cutters and twist that clamp until it breaks off. You will install a new clamp when you install the new pump.
