Advice Re removing Steering Pump and Rack

[apples90]

Hi All,

I need some advice on how to remove my steering rack and steering pump.

I have the rack completely detached from the chassis however i can not get the steering U-joint to separate from steering input into the rack ? i have the pinch bolt taken out however it is on there pretty tight. Any advice on removing it ?

Also, i need to replace my power steering pump but i can not seem to find the location of the power steering drive belt tensioner pully ? i stared at it for about an hour yesterday with no luck haha.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Sam

It doesn't look like that universal joint is intended to separate, rather remove the shaft assembly from the top of the rack.

The tensioner pulley is No. 8 in this drawing.
