Phase one of replacing grossly leaking power steering pump and failed AC compressor and clutch (could be from that PS pump...), underway. I removed both, and the entire accessory mounting bracket, took compressor to get repaired, then cleaned everything up.

After popping out all 7 of the old accessory bushings I was absolutely amazed at how deformed they all were! Each one was mushroomed and off center. I only had three new ones (rubber) on hand, so I'm waiting for parts, but I took a few shots of the old ones vs the new ones. This job is absolutely worth the grunt!

Here's a look. Sorry for the crappy 1st gen iPhone closeups, but pretty easy to spot the new bushing:
