If your 1990 is anything like the 1991, which I own, it's not all that hard just tricky, on mine it was located in front of engine and is very accessible but have to work around a long metal frame piece that makes it tricky. Once you remove the small bolts on housing cover, I used two types of socket sets, one standard and one pivot style head for next to oil pan to get up there in the tight quarter's. Hope this helps a bit and watch out for your knuckles if you need to break bolt free, I got crunched when I hit the frame, lol.
