The bearing on my A/C clutch has gone after many miles. I understand that a special tool is required to pull the plate off the front of the clutch. I am now trying to find the tool so that I can fix my A/C. After extensive searching I have found many tool kits for removing A/C clutches but none that specifically mention that they work with a Harrison V7 compressor. I believe that the compressor on my 98 formula is a V7 based on searches, but if I am wrong please let me know. The kits I have foudn do mention that they fit a Harrison V5 compressor. Does anybody know if the tool for the V5 compressor will work with a V7 compressor? Or alternatively, does anybody know where I can purchase the tool needed to pull the clutch off of my compressor? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i'm guessing at least one of your local parts store would have a loaner for you.

I fuound this info earlier, not sure if it'll help you or not.

Easy to make one also. Find a small pipe nipple that will thread into the end of the clutch & weld a not on one end & thread a bolt through so it pushes on the shaft & pulls the clutch assy off.

Guys,

Thanks for the quick replies. TLewis4095 I actually had the same idea you above with regards to making the puller. You wouldn't by chance know what size the thread is on the clutch would you? It would be great to make my own tool for less than $10 versus buying a kit for $30 or more.
