Default A/C Compressor Removal?

Can you guys give me a hand, I'm not sure how to remove the compressor, and if there is anything special I should about before removing it?
I already removed every thing, All the hardlines, condensor, wires, fan and now I'm left with the compressor.

Any help would be appreciated.

Here are some pictures, if you guys could point out the bolts, or what to do, that would be great!


TIA.

Aaron G.

You are going to have remove the A/C belt before anything else. Just loosen the tensioner and the belt should slack enough to remove it. The compressor should have four 12mm bolts that hold it to the mounting bracket. Remove the four bolts and the compressor should come off.

You need to remove the compressor before you can remove the bracket. So just remove the 12mm bolts. As for the tensioner, there should be a 10mm bolt next to that pulley. In your picture, it is blocked by that bracket.

Oh, so it's not that bolt that I circled on the picture above?


Edit: To take off the belt I mean, to loosen the tensioner?
