Whunter, Thanks for the suggestion, but the A/C is filled with R12 and working quite well. I don't think compressor removal is an option.
The lower hose is not the problem.........it goes right in after you've struggled with the upper hose. The bends in the upper hose are the issue.

No, you thread from the front to the rear.

I have not remove the center bolt and jacked up the engine. Others have done this with good success. I do not understand why the support member would need to be removed.
