i did a water pump change on my car.. i went with the ford water pump,, complete pump with some hoses attached to it cost me $120 from the dealer.... i had to take the battery out, the battery tray and i could get to it.. it is a
96 V-6 engine...if you just going with the replacement part and not the whole water pump you can get by without taking the battery tray out.. as there is enough room to do it with the half of pump....
hope this helps.
