Power steering bolt removal
OK there is two bolts behind the steering pump, so how do you unbolt the bolt toward the block?

I assume you mean the three bolts that attach the power steering pump to the bracket.
You have to remove the power steering pump pulley to get to them. I know, it's a pain in the butt, but that's what I've always had to do. It's a press fit so you have to get a special tool to remove it...and then a different one to reinstall it.

Ok, then what I've had to do is remove the power steering pump(see above)...then you'll be able to get to those torx bolts. I wish there was an easier way.
