Default Replacing P/S Belt

I looked all through my Helms and all through Alldata but found nothing...how the hell do you change the PS belt on the J series engine? It goes over the motor mount! Alldata says that repair time is only .5 hours but doesn't give any instructions on how exactly to change it, only how to loosen/adjust it. I can't figure out how to get it over the motor mount. I bought the alt/AC belt and the PS belt a few weeks ago and threw in the alt/AC belt yesterday but me and my buddy were totally clueless on the PS belt. Any ideas?

You have to remove that mount. Just put a jack under the engine and remove the bolts. I had the same procedure with mine and that is how you do it.

Good Idea, but put a flat thick piece of wood in between the jack and the engine that way you dont put a hole or something on the block / tranny.

Dear God, I think I'll wait until it starts making noise like the alt/AC belt was. It looks fine, I just wanted to do it prevantatively. Thanks!
