Removing accessories? October 24, 2015, 02:12:14 PM Hey all, I'm in the process of disassembling the top end of my '85's 3.8 so I can replace the head gaskets. The power steering pump bracket uses three bolts that also go into the water pump. Do I have to remove the water pump too since three of it's bolts have to be removed? I just replaced the water pump in January and had a hard time getting it to seal. If I can get by without removing it that would be great! Quote Selected
