You can pull it with the lines connected, removing the PS pump will let the lines clear, and removing the battery gives you some more working room. Personally I like to get the compressor and lines out of the way (they always get in my way) - the '95 is R134a so replacing isn't very expensive (you can have the refrigerant recovered at a shop if you're legally and environmentally conscious). I also like to pull everything down to the short-block before I put the chains on the engine but that's just me.

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

It will all rotate out of the way. The quick disconnect fitting rotate freely. Rotate it over to the right side of the car carefully. Put a thick towel over the passenger side fender, and use a bungie chord around the wheel to hold the compressor out of the engine compartment.
