Anyone have experience changing the power steering pump on a 1997 3.2 TL? Is it a diy project or too difficult?

From shop manual:

1. Remove the air cleaner (ACL).
2. Remove the belt by loosening the pump adjusting
bolt, mounting bolts.
3. Disconnect the inlet hose and the outlet line from
the pump them, plug.
NOTE: Take care not to spill the fluid on the body
or parts. Wipe off any spilled fluid at once.
4. Remove the pump mounting bolts, then remove the
pump.
NOTE:
• Do not turn the steering wheel with the pump
removed.
• Wrap the opening of the pump with a piece of
tape to prevent foreign material form entering
the pump.

good luck
