here's a tip drain your coolant and take off the hoses before you unbolt the pump it will be easier to break the hoses loose if the pump is solid.
other than that it is a cut and dry deal to replace.
1.drain fluid & loosen hoses
2. remove rad shroud
3.looses belts & remove fan
4.unbolt your pump and replace.
