Default water pump 3.0 ohv 1998

Hey guys. I have been smelling antifreze for a couple of days now. Well tonight on my way home I heard a noise from the engine. got home popped the hood and you could see the waterpump pulley wobbling. Then i took a closer look and i could see a small amount of coolant coming from the weep hole in the pump. So has anyone changed the waterpump on one of these (98 ohv 3.0L) lately. Is there anything I need to watchout for or any special tools or parts i need. alldata showed it to be 2.9hr job. looks like I'll be spending turkey day under the hood. THANKS, JHATTEN
