I just did this on a 2006 Escape XLT with the 3.0 litre V6. You have to take the passenger front tire off and remove the outer wheel well (plastic piece that covers the engine on that side). Use a 3/8 drive ratchet (just the end of the ratchet - no socket) in the end of the tentioner to give the old belt some slack. You should be able to squeeze your arm up between the frame and engine to do this. Then just pull off the old belt. There is a diagram of the proper belt routing on the engine cowl by the radiator in case you weren't paying attention as to how it was on before. I'm not a mechanic but I am mechanically inclined and the whole deal took me about 2 hours in the garage- laying on the floor...UGH!
