Connect cooling bypass hose, heater hose and radiator lower hose to water pump. Tighten clamps securely.
If equipped with air conditioning, install compressor front support bracket. Tighten retaining bolts to 41-61 N.m (30-44 lb-ft) .
Position power steering pump and mounting brackets. Install the retaining bolts. Tighten to 40-62 N.m (30-45 lb-ft) .
