I had the same problem with my 97. I took my die grinder and removed most of that stupid bracket. I don't think it has any other use than to make it almost impossible to remove the compressor without spending a whole lot of money at the repair shop. Even with the bracket ground away it is still very difficult to get that bolt out without some help from a friend. You need some one up top moving the compressor around while you lay on your back and fight with the bolt.
Difficult but possible and you will undoubtedly increase your vocabulary for the worse while you are at it!
