Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) P/S pump & Vacuum pump

[RMcNee]

Ok anything special I need to know about removing the P/S and vacuum pump off a 97 4x4 2500 automatic, girlfriends went out 2 weeks ago in that cold spell we had here in MT (-28 one night) as much as I have read on here I'm thinkin the coupling is busted, local shop says its only listed at 2 hrs labor, so I'm thinking it cant be that hard. Thanks for any info. . anyone wanna help on this thing? I'm scheduled for back surgery on Tuesday... lol... thanks guys.....

You will probably have to cut the rubber line they stick like they are glued on.

Best to remove them as one unit. Separate after they are on work bench.
