I lived in Glastonbury when you were in Kindergarten, but that doesn't help much today. There are some really good 240 mechanics in the New Haven/Groton area, send one of them an email. Or go to the RWD section and ask for help? The rack and PS pump are still designed the same.

The steering rack is a royal pain to R&R, the pump is not so bad. You could replace the pump after taking off the S belt, just find something to turn and lock the tensioner with a nail or drill bit. The access to the bolts is not the best in the world, and you will need to drain all the existing fluid out of the hoses.
