remove power steering and AC

so i think i wanna remove the power steering, and ac..
wtf do i do first?? i need more room under the hood then what i have..
help me out..
thanks..
about how much $$ do u think i have to spend to do this?

you'll need a manual steering gear box.

ok, and for the ac? do i just unhook all the lines, and its fine?

pretty much. if memory serves, you can ditch the whole bracket its mounted to also. you may have to get a couple shorter timing cover bolts tho. you can also use a single belt pulley on the fuck

why are you ditching this stuff?

kewl.. guess im going to head out and start taking the shit off.
thanks

want you want for the a/c box and heat

a manual steering gear box
lol

can i just take all the damn lines off of it and keep it opened at the top where those 2 lines go in?
and just not turn the AC switch to on??
or is this bad?
i have the damn thing off the truck right now, but i dont know what size belt i would need to go on the harmonic balancer, and the little pulley just sitting out there now.. lol

wait.. that belt doesnt goto shit anymore.. i can just take it off, since i took the ac pump out..
right??
the smallest pulley is only the tensioner

bingo. you only need one belt. that runs the waterpump/alternator.
