AC recovery/prep?

Greetings all,

I'm planning to retain air conditioning for my pending conversion, and am seeking guidance on the proper approach.

Prior to removing the engine, I intend to have the AC refrigerant removed.  Then, remove the engine, dismantle/remove the AC accessory components, etc.  Then, after the drive mechanism for the compressor has been fabricated and assembled to the compressor, reconnect everything and recharge.

Surely it can't be this easy.  What am I missing?

Thanks in advance,
Josh
