roadmaster 1996 air compressor removal

we are trying to remove the air compressor from our roadmaster and its not coming out...what are we missing...the pully seized up so we are replacing it...we are wondering if the two small bolts on the inner side need to be removed and could be the problem...have removed the 3 bolts in the front and it still wont come off

If you are talking about the a/c compressor, yes, the bracket in the rear needs to be removed as well.

You could just replace the pulley and bearing assembly.....while still on the car
