Can these hoses be replaced without dropping the plate?
If the plate has to be dropped, can it be unbolted at the front, but left dangling (sitting on a jack) at the front and loosened at the rear? I ask because I am a one man show and will not have access to assistance.

I had a leak from the PS low-pressure Hose where it meets the PS Pump.
I tightened the clamp a bit: This stopped the leak.
No need to drop the stiffening plate. All I did was:
- Remove the plastic shield. I posted photos in forum as there are 3-4 types of screws. Search for the photo (it is in the partial cooling overhaul thread).
- If you need more space, then drive the front up the wood ramps.
