I just this last week on my 84.  There is an adjustment bolt
facing the right side of the car, which is a 13mm, and in my case
was rusted in place and snapped.  I am making do without it for
now.  There are two other bolts, one is a 17mm on the side of the
compressor facing the rear of the car, and on the side facing the front
which I think is also a 17mm.  Clean off the undercarriage with Simple
Green or another degreaser, you'll quickly see what needs to be done.

Guess no one had an a/c connector like mine dangling huh?
