how to replace my a/c compressor

[93_SHO_off]

I just got a used compressor for my 93 atx and I need some help on installing it. I have never really done any a/c work before but I am sure I can handle it. I just want some input on how much hair I will lose during the install :headbang: and any trouble-spots I might come across. thanks in advance.

Theres a manifold hose, which is of the hard/unmovable type in front of one of the compressor mounting bolts.. Still havent figured that one out..
