No it is fairly simple if you have any mechanical ability at all. Buy you a repair manual at your local auto parts store, it tells you step by step how to replace it. Just be sure to get the timing mark on crank pulley ligned up with TDC on the cover before you remove the pulley, don't disturb the crank position by turning the cam/belt when replacing the belt. You can slide the pulley back on withtout tightening it to double check your alignment marks before you button it all back up. Notch on crank is up, one on cam is down.

How to change a water pump on a 96 geo tracker
if the pump was driven by the timing belt you probably installed the timing belt wrong, this is common if the cam and crankshaft pulleys are not lined up properly the base timing of the motor will be off. get the book(Haynes or Chiltons) and check your marks.

A/c compressor makes screeching noise in geo tracker 96
This is just a guess but the screeching might not be the compressor. You might need a new drive belt and make sure you put belt drive dressing if you replace it.
