I cannot help at the moment. I am on IR after 2 level fusion at C-5,6-6,7
Hey Patrick sorry to hear that, hope all goes well for you.
68gtoMN thanks for the scan, but I do have a copy of that resto guide, I just am a little unclear on where the rear bracket attaches to the block as I am missing the threaded stud it bolts to. If someone could put a pic of the rear area of compressor and block it would be a great help.

the rear bracket attaches to the cylender head bolt that has a stud on top. It is the same type of bolt that the battery ground atteches to on the drivers side. Look at your bolts to see if someone in the past installed that bolt in the wrong place. If so just swap them out. Re torque to specs.
Hope this helps a little bit more. I believe it bolts to the center head bolt. (between the exhaust ports)

Thanks for the diagram. Looks like I am missing the pivot bracket for my A/C compressor.

You were spot on Patrick, bolts were in the wrong place.
The bolt with the threaded stud was installed on the front pass side and after I installed the pivot bracket I didn't notice it there.
Swapped em around and retorqued.
