the a/c has a bracket that holds the freon lines tight. you need to remove that bolt on some cars to get the compressor to move enough to get the belt off. DO NOT TAKE THE BOLT OUT THAT HOLDS THE LINES TO THE COMPRESSOR!!! just the bolt that holds the bracket that holds the lines to the frame of the car.

"as I ride with my a/c on... I have fond memories of sweaty oily saturdays and spewing R12 into the air. THANKS for all you do!

My drivers:

1987 560SL convertible
1987 190D 2.5-5SPEED!!!

1987 300TD
2005 Dodge Sprinter 2500 158"WB
1994GMC 2500 6.5Turbo truck... I had to put the ladder somewhere!

I'll give it a look. I remember seeing a bracket while i was down there. I don't think it was in the way or holding back the AC though.
