Can I replace just the clutch on the a/c compressor?
HI,
The clutch on my a/c compressor is starting to freeze up. Is there a way to replace or repair the clutch or bearings without having to replace the entire ac compressor?
Thank you in advance,
Rob

You can rebuild the A/C clutch by replacing the bearings or you can purchase a clutch assembly(these will come with a 1 yr -sometimes lifetime- warranty).It's pulled off the compressor similar to the alternator and pwr steering pulleys.

How do I remove the ac clutch?
I see there is one bolt in the center of the a/c clutch, but when I put a socket on it, the whole inner part turns....also, is it lefty loosey as normal??
Thanks, Rob
