1992 GMC A/C Compressor question

[BHite15]

Is it possible to remove the compressor without removing the clutch from it first? I would like to remove it as one complete unit, if possible....but it appears the bolts may hit the clutch pack. Just looking for info to see what i am getting myself into soon.

on the head of the bolts that hold the compressor, there will be one flat side on each bolt. Just line those up and it might be a little hard to get them at first but thats how you do it.
