Default Water pump replacement advice

This is my first post other than my introduction. I'm about to replace the water pump on my 1993 County with the 4.2 under the hood. It all seems straight forward enough, but I thought that I might ask those in the know if there are any things to be aware of peculiar to this vehicle.

I'm aware that the threads on the big fan nut are reverse threaded (just give the wrench a good whack with a hammer in the proper direction while the belts are still attached, correct?)

Anything else that I should know before I begin? I must admit that I love the car, I'm a bit intimidated by the mechanics of this beast after reading about it on the interweb! Thanbks in advance for any help given. Hopefully, someday I can be the one helping with advice.

Download the RAVE and you should have no problems. Search this site for RAVE download. Make sure you get the gasket as well as the pump. Fairly straight forward job. I would switch out the thermostat while you're at it.
