Default A C compressor removal

2001 B1500 van, 5.2,,, removing the complete AC system, is there a kit to replace compressor with a pulley or do you just run a shorter belt?

I think most folks just run a shorter belt. There might be an a/c delete pulley out there, if you wanna stick with the standard belt size.

I don't want to add a pulley,,, just not sure if running a shorter belt would work or if it needs to be routed different. Any idea on the belt size to use without compressor?
