It is not a job I would recommend trying if you are a novice at working on diesel engines. The gear cover on the front of the engine has to come off just to get at the pump gears and bolts to remove the pump from the engine. You need to be able to bar the engine over to set the pump timeing after you reinstall the pump.
Why do you need to pull the pump in the first place? Unless it is faulty, any pump modifications can be done with the pump in place.

i also wouldn't recommend doing it if your aren't very mechanically inclined. Its kind of a PITA job. and to do the timing properly your self you'll need a timing kit from snap-on thats around $300.

whats wrong with the pump that you have to remove it? unless the thing has grenaded or something theres no point. all power mods can be done with it on the truck as said before
