I need to replace the ac compressor pump belt and the power steering pump belts. Can anyone give me a heads up on how to start this or some site that might explain it. I looked it up in the Hayse Manual that I have but it doesnt get into too much detail for changing belts.
Thanks for the help.

Theyre straightforward.
You need to remove the lower mount to replace the AC belt...not difficult. There is a tensioner pulley that you loosen from the front right below the power steering...a 10mm bolt in a 12mm nut I believe. Loosen that, remove mount, remove belt, replace belt, tighten tensioner.
PS Belt is 2 12mm if I remember right, and a wingnut. Loosen bolts & wingnut, drop the unit, remove belt, replace belt, bring back up and tighten.
