water pump removal

[a guy]

Update from previous thread. Replaced fan belt hoping age was problem why water pump was not turning. Not the case. Pump turns with some resistance by hand but not with engine started. Must pull water pump. Questions - What steps do I take to make sure hood goes back on in proper position? Stone guard right up against light bar, assume will come off after loosening clips - at that point will radiator move forward enough to remove water pump? Will drain water and loosen top radiator hose. Also loosen radiator support bars. Appreciate any help and advise. Thanks.
