Do not touch those until you have the system emptied. The freon is under pressure in those hoses. Take it to a shop and have it discharged (the gas is hazardous to the environment and needs to be disposed of properly.)

I think you will need to replace your dryer as well after you open the system. Then you will have to go back to a shop to have the system vacced and refilled.

I think you'd be better off not touching it at all, do you really need to disconnect them?

Just unbolt the AC compressor from the motor and move it aside.

YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE AC LINES TO DO THIS.

I didn't

If you disconnect those hoses, a bunch of slimy crap will come out at high pressure and spray all over everything. Take it to an A/C shop and have them empty the system for you if you end up having to ramove either of those.
