Bypassing the A/C Compressor 200 1986

My A/C Compressor locked up this evening. When it locked up I was cruising down the road at 65mph, therefore, it also burned up my A/C clutch. The clutch makes a very loud grinding noise. This means that until I get a new compressor my power steering will not funtion. I noticed that it looks like the second pulley back is on the same plane as the power steering pump could I just get one very long belt to go around the crank, water pump and PS pump? Is there an easy way to bypass the A/C to run the power steering pump? I have an 86 240GL.

Thanks

Brian
