    Drive pump? If you are asking about power steering pump yes it is possible but not easy. Far less work than pulling motor but we used to do it regularly to do warranty replacements or put in Challenge pumps.

    I have done it and like Brian said it's not easy. If you have a spider, it is easier than a coupe.

    The reason the spider is easier is you can drop the top and remove the engine lid. Then the work can be done while you are standing in the passenger compartment. With the GTS, you have to work from inside the engine bay.

    It’s seems that in the middle of the pump, there is a long screw, so it’s possible to have acces on it ?
