Make sure that the belt is off of the pulley? I used a screwdriver, phillips head, pushed through the bolt hole of the compressor and the engine block to line up one of the holes. That acted as a handle and also kept the compressor sort of lined up. Pushing a bolt through the other end I only needed to pivot the compressor to line up the bolt hole at the other end as it was already lined up by the screwdriver.

Regards

That's an ugly thought. I have heard that it is impossible to get them in with the engine in the truck......anybody tried?

its not possible, you can get to them with the tranny out...... or maybe, just maybe, with the intake manifold off
