Just replaced compressor on 1981 DeVille. It has 3 nuts on the bottom of the bracket in front. There is also a stud which holds the rear in place UNDER the air cleaner about 8 inches behind the compressor. You will need to remove the stud with a pair of nuts locked together. Then the compressor with brackets attached comes straight out toward the radiator. Ignition wires and other hoses and wires need to be ON TOP of the rear bracket with exception of one tube underneath. Only four fasteners need to be removed to get it off and trying to take brackets off is a waste of time. The rear bracket only goes on one way, or it will not connect to stud. Note how the bolts go through the brackets because they need to go back the same way.
