I have not found any treads for pulling the unit from the 07 Journey (diesel) 36 G and I beleive you also have a diesel so maybe we can compare notes. There is not a side door and I don't know how the side panel is attached to the coach.
Looking under the coach I see approximately 7 to 8 ea 5/8 or 11/16 bolts holding the mounting bracket (they may also be 15 mm bolts). Air duct in back near rear. I read about using motocycle jack to grab and lower unit so I will position it first. I'm not sure if condenser comes out with unit and it is large so with unit on jack I don't think it will fit between lower body and drive way. I have also not located the power conectors.
Any issues you run into let me know and we will compare notes.
thanks

jk,
Well Sir, I certainly will let you know what I find. I don't know if you've seen dunner's great write up and picture display of the removal of the A/C unit or not but it's absolutely great. Although the one he works on removes from the side, it appears that maybe yours and mine come out through the bottom. I also don't know if you've seen all my posts or not on this subject but, the last time I went in to check it out by running the heater, it was all but incredibly quiet from the inside, not like it was when we were at Quartzsite for a week. But, when I went to the outside to listen, I could hear the slight "clanging-banging" of what could be maybe the squirl cage fan might be having issues. It's not overly loud though. You have to get right down next to the grill to hear it and it's a quiet neighborhood. So, at this time, I'm 50/50 on tearing it out or not. I most likely will tear it out just to get the job done and, maybe take a look at the motor bearings and if not anything else, lube them through the little doors. We'll see.

Kix,
Thanks for the alternate answers here. The more I read, the more I'm armed with knowledge of what to look for and do when this unit is removed. Very much appreciated.
