A/C compressor bolts

Hi all, My A/C compressor decided its not long for this world. The bearing blew. it did not grenade itself luckily. I ordered a new one, took off the belt and the front 2 bolts, however I've been stuck on trying to even reach the rear bolt to remove it. I can get a socket on it, but not get a wrench on the socket.

Is there a trick? Do I have to remove the tire and fender well? Ive tried from on top, and under, and im not able to get a wrench on it at all. I'm not sure people with a hoist would even have a better time, there's simply no room.

service data says it should be an hour job... no clue what I'm doing wrong other than being very large.


any tips would be appreciated. Thanks folks
