Hi All!

I'm new, so forgive me if this has been answered before. I didn't see anything about it, so here goes.

85 Bronco ii, 2.8, 4x4, automatic. I decided to save myself $100 and change my 3 drive belts myself. Seemed easy enough.

I have loosened every nut/bolt that I can see on the front of the bracket - 7 of em. The compressor will not budge. The power steering belt is ready to fall off, the alternator looks easy enough, but I can't get the compressor to move at all.

Bummer cuz I can't do any of them until the A/C belt comes off.

What am I doing wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated - thanks!
