A/C Complete Removal
I removed all of my under hood A/C components many years ago.
I bought (from ebay) another rear compressor/alternator bracket and did some cutting. I then purchased a small block Chevy chrome alternator adjustment arm (~$10 at O'Reilleys) and cut it to use for the alternator pivot point. I use a second PS (Federal pump) belt which connects the alternator to the crank (with a little grinding of a rib on the water pump). Been like this for several years, and several thousand miles with no troubles. All in about $50. Cheap and easy, and I still have all the original parts if i ever want to go back.
