Search on it - there's posts about the pwr steering pump every two weeks, in this particular forum.
It's very easy, there's only 7 bolts or so you need to un-do. You access from the side splash panel that covers the belts.

Although, for what it's worth, I replaced my power steering hose with an aftermarket one and no matter what I've done it still whines. From what I can gather on here, several others have had similar symptoms with the aftermarket hoses for some reason

It probably needs to be re-bleed..

While in park and idling, turn your steering wheel to extreme left and extreme right until all the fliud is within the system, continue and top off as necessary to prevent from sucking air into your system. It will make a little noise until all the air is depleted and your system is completely liquid!

If it's making bubble there's still air in the system be patient and keep cycling the steering!

The bleeding procedure per FSM
1. Raise front of vehicle until wheels are clear of the ground
2. add fluid into tank to specified level, turn steering wheel quickly from left to right,lightly touching the steering stoppers..repeat procedure until fluid level stops going down..
3. Start engine, then repeat step 2 with the engine running...
