I'm changing the air cond. compressor I've got the bolts all out but it won't go up or dovn to remove. Do I need to remove the radiator to get more room? I removed the lower radiator hose to try and pull it down, no luck. Also I don't see a radiator cap, must be hidden.

According to Mitchell you have to remove the alternator and the alternator mounting bracket as well as the compressor mounting bracket to have enough room to remove the compressor.
