Power Steering Belt Replacement Issue
I have a 1995 Honda Accord Ex 2.7L V6 with an Automatic Transmission and I am replacing all of my belts at once. There is an alternator belt, an A/C belt and a power steering belt. I can replace the alternator and A/C belt easily but there is a motor mount blocking me from removing the power steering belt and installing the new one. My power steering pump in on the passenger side of the car along with the alternator and A/C compressor. My question is will I have to loosen the bolts from the motor mount and make just enough of a gap to slide the old belt through to get it off and the new belt through to get it on? Is this the correct way to do this because I have searched all over the internet and I have found no information on this situation. If I do have to loosen the bolts from the motor mount, what exactly should I do to ensure I do this safely and without any issues when I re-tighten the motor mount back into its' original position? Is there another way to do this without messing with the motor mount?
Any help is appreciated....

Re: Power Steering Belt Replacement Issue
Can you take a clear detailed pic if whats going on ?
However without seeing i would guess you would need to put a jack under the oil pan with a wooden block in between so you dont dent or damage the oil pan and jack it up just a tad to take pressure off the mount bolts. Then you can remove the bolts since the pressure is now off the mount. Then remove the belt and reinstall the parts again.
