I just replaced the WP on my 2002 2.7. I replaced the pump, the thermostat w/low temp model, the engine mount, and all the hoses that come off the engine that you can get to while under the car - two big ones that go to the water pipes that run to the radiators, and two smaller hoses. It was all pretty accessible once the car was up high enough. I replaced the WP (Pierberg) from the front access panel, and while I was there installed an underdrive pulley. Since cooling was on my mind, I also replaced the bleeder valve O-rings.

Replace the hoses after you replaced the front engine mount, the big hoses are right in the way of the mount.
