Welcome to AF. 3800 engine?, if so the hard part is getting around the p/s pump. It can be loosened and moved just enough to get to the one bolt the pulley blocks.

Yeah it is the 3800, and you guessed it, I am hung up on the last bolt that is tucked behind the pwr string pulley. Which bolts do i need to loosen on the pwr streering system?
