Can you remove the accesorry bracket without taking off the power steering/ac comp.
basically as the title says. im about to remove the N/A motor from my 87 rx7, but i need to disconnect the bracket that keeps the power steering pump and the ac compressor in place. Ive heard that its possible but have not found a way to remove the bolts keeping it attached to the motor. any advice would be helpful, I've searched the internet for answers but could only find things about the power steering pump, and the compressor, and nothing about how to actually remove the bracket.

pretty sure the easy way is to unbolt the a/c compressor and P/s pump and tie them to the side, and then just leave the bracket on the engine

I found out how to do it, my overall objective of this was to get the bracket holding those 2 items off so i could remove the motor. the compressor is all you need to remove in order to take off the bolts holding the bracket on the motor. then just pull it off and keep it to the side.

Easiest thing to do is: (a) Unbolt compressor & wire it off to the side w/lines attached (b) Do the same with the PS pump, obviously the pulley has to be removed first to get the PS pump off the bracket & wired out of the way with lines attached. Then the engine can come out with the bracket attached.
