The compressor sits on the passenger side motor mount. You have to replace your motor mount with a different one that has a platform and 3 bolt holes. The compressor is a York compressor mounted vertically, and 3 bolts go into the bottom of the compressor. There is another bracket that goes from the top side of the compressor, across the valve cover, and bolts to the intake manifold. It has an idler pulley. Finally, another bracket goes from the same top side of the compressor across and down, bolting to the exhaust manifold. You will need to find all that stuff somewhere.
The crank pulley is the same. The alternator belt is removed and replaced with a long one that goes crank - alternator - under idler pulley, around A/C compressor, back to crank. That belt needs to be really tight. I've torn a few up because they slipped.
You can sort of see it in DougM's new 99t, linked here
