Engine Mechanical problem
1997 Ford Thunderbird V8 Automatic 135000 miles

My a/c unit has locked up and i dont have the money to fix it right now. So i know that its possible to reroute the serpentine (with a new size belt) to bypass the a/c compressor. My problem is I don't know what route i should put the belt on. Any suggestions?
