I did this last January. You can remove the fan blades to get the belt off. You have to unbolt the PS pump and move it out of the way to get at the lower WP bolts.
I took the radiator out but I probably didn't have to. The block drain is under the rear exhaust manifold.
The upper rear WP bolt is a PITA. I used a 3/8" drive with a u-joint at an odd angle. You can do it.
Use a little grease on the WP o-ring to keep it in place.
Get a new serp. belt while you're in there. Keep the old one as a spare.
Please report back.
