Welcome to AF!!

Unless the compressor locks up and doesn't turn there really isn't any reason to remove it just leave it where it is and use the belt you have.

Re: a/c belt

The only way you can eliminate the compressor is to use a bypass pulley if compressor is going bad and needs to be removed. You may be better off to get a used compressor from a wrecking yard and get it recharged.
