ISO: Steeda UDP Install Instructions /w Pics Preferably
Topic, going to install UDP's and I cant seem to find the Steeda UDP instructions can anyone help me with this? Did a search but most I found were the motoblue's and the 99-04 installs.

Brand doesn't matter, they are all identical in installation and construction. Steeda and Motoblue are made in the same factory, it's just that some get labeled "Steeda" and some get labeled "Motoblue".
Anyway, here is a great sourceof info for the install.

...if anything this is too much information! It's actually a super simple job:
Here is a photo of what kind of puller you need. This puller is normally used for Chryslers. Print out the photo or memorize what it looks like so you know what to get when you go to the auto parts store. You should be able to borrow one for free.

...if anything this is too much information! It's actually a super simple job:
1. Unbolt the PS reservoir and the Radiator overflow tank from the car. Set them aside (no need to disconnect hoses). Then, remove the fan. There's two screws and an electrical connector to disconnect. Bingo, it's out. Now you have a lot more room to work.
2. Stick a scrap piece of cardboard alongside the radiator. That way if you drop something you don't accidentally screw up the fins.
3. Leave the car in gear, parking brake set.
4. While the belt is still on, break loose the water pump pulley bolts.
5. Release tensioner and take off the belt.
6. Remove OEM crank pulley. I used an impact wrench to remove the bolt. Then use the Chrysler-type puller to remove the pulley itself. Don't forget to use the proper length pin in the nose of the puller so you don't screw up the threads on the crank snout.
7. Install the new balancer. I put anti-sieze on the inside of the pulley's hole and a dab of RTV on the keyway. Set it on by hand. Then use the supplied "installation bolt" to snug it down. Your kit will include directions on this.
8. Install the new water pump pulley
9. Re-install the belt
10. Remove carboard, replace fan (don't forget to plug it in!) and replace reservoirs.

The "3rd" pulley motoblue gives you is just a new idler. It doesn't actually do anything for performance. They just throw it in the kit to make their product look more attractive to the customer.
