Air Compressor removal

Never changed a air conditioning compressor before, what is the best method in the removal. From the top or under the car? I'll be having the evac/refill after the install of the compressor/Dryer and new o-rings. Thanks in advance.

Re: Air Compressor removal

Def the bottom. put the car on jack stand. evacuate the system, If i remember right, the bolt on the lines to the compressor was a pita, but otherwise than that it was pretty simple. I removef the belt, tensioner, 1 cooling fan (Made it a little bit more easy!) 3 bolts for the a/c compressor. I did mine a while ago so I might be leaving a little info out. lube the o-rings with pag oil.
