Start by disconnecting the battery's negative terminal and draining the cooling system. Remove the coolant reservoir/windshield washer reservoir assembly on V6 models, as well as the cooling fan(s) and shroud. Take off the drivebelts and water pump pulley, and on 2.4L four-cylinder engines, remove the timing belt, timing belt idler pulley, camshaft sprockets, and rear timing belt cover. For 3.7L V6 engines, detach the lower radiator hose from the pump. On 4.0L engines, remove the air filter housing and the right engine mount through-bolt. Use an engine hoist to raise the engine slightly and secure it in place with a jack.

Don't mistake drivebelt slippage, which causes a squealing sound, for water pump bearing failure.
