I was wondering if anyone has a trick to break loose the three power steering pump pulley bolts. I am in the middle of replacing the serpentine belt tensioner, alternator, and the belt. The tensioner does not look like it will come off without removing the power steering pulley.

That's correct the pulley must be removed. Stick a 3/8" extension into one of the holes in pulley to hold it from rotating while removing and tightening the bolts.
