AC Delete pulley all I need?

Hey guys, my AC hasn’t worked in years and is now grinding and squeeling like crazy so I ordered a delete pulley from Hawks assuming it’s all I need. Do I need to remove or replace a bunch of stuff or can I just remove any lines going to the ac (pump?)?

I did 😉It wasn’t too bad though, $35 or so I think. Shipping to Canada was another 40 though. The compressor is the part that the delete pulley is replacing right?

Plan ahead and cap or plug any fittings left open on the car, and the fittings on parts removed and stored, to keep contaminants, bugs, dirt, etc out. That way eventually when someone wants to put the A/C back in, the parts aren't completely destroyed.
