Any mechanics?

I have a piece if crap 98 Chevy S-10 PU. Need to replace the water pump with AC. Any tips? Was told the fan was a beatch to remove.
I have replaced the serpentine belt before.....so I'm familiar with that part of it.
Just took it into the dealer...had a bad U joint. He gave me a list of stuff that needed to be replaced...with a price list that came to $700!!!!
Yesterdays bill read : Parts = $40, Labor = $175. I feel like I have been robbed. The truck MIGHT be worth $1200, so there was no way I was going to spend the $700.
I elected to do the water pump and radiator flush myself. What am I in for???
