I saw that one too...same steps as in the book. Just worried about discharging the AC and having to jack up the engine.

I've read quite a number of threads on changing the belt. There's some that say you can push the A/C lines to the side without discharging them but it makes it harder to do the job. All that I've read say you have to jack up the engine to gain access to certain areas.

Do you think there are any "specialty" tools I'd need? I've got damn near everything normal. The book has me jumping all over for certain steps for this and that and it's hard to follow. Just making sure I've got everything. I hate running back out to Pep Boys or Advance Auto.
