89 F250 A/C Compressor

My air conditioning compressor on my 89 F250 is smoking after about 5-10 minutes of starting the engine... Any way to remove the compressor and get a different belt since I don't need the A/C or would it be better to fix/replace it? It's basically a plow/farm truck now...

You can purchase an A/C bypass pulley that bolts in place of the compressor.

I think this is what you want:
A/C Bypass Pulley 88-89

I have no idea if this is a good price. I've never looked for them.

Thanks. I didn't know those things existed.

So I should be able to remove all the other A/C components too and help open up some space to work on the engine. Any pictures or diagrams of the A/C system removable components? (So I don't remove anything I shouldn't)
