Relocating ac compressor

Has anyone on here err relocated their ac compressor? It's just completely in the way of everything and hides your motor. I've always wante to move it but don't know how or where. I've thought about running it off the drive shaft lol any other ideas???

I don't think that would work too well in stop and go traffic.

About all I can recommend is go to the scrapyard and look at the different configurations. Cars will be different so look at those too.
Unless you want to spend big bucks on a set-up from March or Billet Specialties.

What year truck and what engine?
That will be the biggest factor.

You can mount it almost any place you can find room, just have to make brackets. But I agree with 81ChopTop, on the drive shaft isn't a real good idea.
