Water pump on a 2.4, I'm sensing a PITA challange

New to the quad4, but not a beginner wrencher. I was under the car installing more parts and pieces and notice a wet spot on the axle. Get to looking, dayme coming out of the water pump. Have a new one in hand and did a little research on replacing it...

Well, gonna be this weekend project. Looks like an easy 8hrs from what I am figuring (including beverage breaks, cursing, and wrench throwing).

Oh well just ranting out loud <sigh>

Not a normal wrencher i give you 20 hours and you break something. The water pump in the 2.4 is a pita. if you replace the water pump replace the timeing chain and tensioners or you will regret it.
