Default Removing all the accessories?

I'm looking at removing everything I don't need. Like p/s, a/c, etc. Just want crank, w/p, and alternator.

Do I need any special brackets, or anything? Anyone done this and have pics or a write up?

Any help is appreciated!

AC runs on its own belt, thats a simple removal.

you can also just remove the p/s pump and run a short belt. however, I believe the alternator bolt is in the way.

You can cut the head of the bolt down or grind down the alt bracket some.

Did you ever figure anything out on this? i am doing the same thing as you except i want to run a electric water pump so its just the alternator. Im trying to figure out what i need to buy since i don't have anything except the stock crank pulley.
