you will have to pull your passenger tire off and the splash panel, easy. then get an impact and find the size i forgot and pull the bolt and washer off. then take the belt off of it... your goin to have to find 3 metric screws/bolts that can screw into the pully so the pully puller can grab onto it. and get a pully puller(if you dont already have one)...i use all of my fathers tool for projects.....so i didnt have to get one.....then when its off make sure the key is still in the keyway of the crankshalft....so the key is not sticking past the shalf at all. and it goes all the way back and is slit into the shalf that turns the timing chain. then its simple enough. put in on just a hair so its mounted there at the end. and put the bolt and washer on and tighten it up and the pully is mounted and find the right size belt and put the tire and splash panel back on and your done....
good luck

You need a pulley pulley....some auto parts places call it a harmonic balancer remover. Autozone sells them for 15.99 or something. You loosen and remove the middle bolt on the crank pulley, and then insert the three screws supplied in the pulley pulley kit into the cranks face. There is a middle threaded rod that you turn that pulls the pulley of the crank. Please make sure you line up the key in the keyway, and use a rubber mallet to get the 2.3 crank pulley started on the 2.4 crank. You might want to use a wire brush or sand paper to remove any loose rust from the crank pulley. Then use the bolt from the 2.4 to push the crank pulley onto the crank shaft. Also a little tread lock is not a bad idea. Also re-check the bolt in a few days to make sure it is still properly tightened down.

Any questions feel free to ask.
