Anyone one know of a good way to loosen the upper bolts on the AC compressor bracket? I removed the battery and tray. I could touch the bolts but there didn't seem to be enough room to turn a wrench or a ratchet. I'm trying to replace the belt. Thanks!

I worked on this problem recently. Here's my thread.

This is my solution, (tool in the middle with the angled tube on the right over the end to give some leverage):

Tool on the left is a 'spreader' to tension the belt when reinstalling everything.

Anything I might say is probably worth what you paid for it, so treat it accordingly!
