Drawings of belt path are on a sticker under your hood. Instructions on best removal or replacement method - depends on how much room you want. If you want a lot of room, take off the fan and shroud. If you have skinny arms, leave those on. Stick a 1/2" drive ratchet into the belt tensioner and back it off, pull the belt off the alternator, release the tensioner, and pull the belt off the rest of the way. Get under your hood and you'll see what I'm talking about. Belt tensioner is on your left side. The only pulley on a lever with a 1/2" square hole in it.

Would you still have to capture the refrigerant to put back into the new one?
I had Ford change out my AC clutch pulley and they had to pull the compressor..saw the refrigerant cost on the bill..
