Two things to consider;

1. Discharging the Freon into the atmosphere is a no-no. Get it drained
at a shop.

2. Look at how your belts line up, you may need to change a pulley on
the waterpump in order to get the crank, pump, and alt to line up. Since
this is not always the case you will need to see for yourself.
