There is a bolt in the center of the ac unit. remove that, then you would have to pry off the front plate. It was a couple of years ago last time I did it, but I remember it being very easy.

Driving the car on ramps would help.

The "shims" are basically little washers that will fall out when that front plate comes off. I dont know if you could leave the plate off, or find and appropriate washer.
