Default No more A/C

Well im taking out my motor this winter and i was wondering how hard it would be to take the A/C off of it? Is there anything that i really need to do special to get it off the motor, and the car. thanks

4 bolts hold the compressor to the motor, and then 2 more for the bracket the compressor sits in. then take off the lines to and from the firewall, then take out the condenser.

getting the condenser out will probably be the hardest part. i would also recommend taking the motor out before you attempt to remove the compressor

i would plug 'em up somehow. i would also seal up the compressor. if you have access to some nitrogen, blow some into the stuff, then seal them up. it will help keep the moisture out some.
