i laid my head under a-arm to crossmember bolt so i could see up and get dirt in my eyes, stuffed my right hand up by the tie rod and the left arm u found a rather straight shot with and alternated tightening bolts.

Make sure that the belt is off of the pulley? I used a screwdriver, phillips head, pushed through the bolt hole of the compressor and the engine block to line up one of the holes. That acted as a handle and also kept the compressor sort of lined up. Pushing a bolt through the other end I only needed to pivot the compressor to line up the bolt hole at the other end as it was already lined up by the screwdriver.

Regards

i think that is a diagram on your front clip cover thinger? red should go to your fuel press regulator, green egr and white or whatever is left should hit the evap port.

That's an ugly thought. I have heard that it is impossible to get them in with the engine in the truck......anybody tried?

its not possible, you can get to them with the tranny out...... or maybe, just maybe, with the intake manifold off
