the pulley on my a/c compressor seized up. Can i just get a new pulley clutch thing for the compressor and replace that or do i need to get a whole new compressor??
If the latter, i might just remove the a/c stuff all together. If i do that, can i just go to a dealership and buy the powersteering relocation kit from them, or do i have to order it off the internet??

You can get a new clutch and coil. However, if the belt pulley is seized then your problem probably lies in the compressor bearings.

I bought the power steering relocation plate from "march" and it didn't work that well. you don't really need to relocate it, thats just to make it look like the ones that came from the factory without an a/c. you can just get shorter belt. saves you some time, money and headache.

Click to expand...

if you want AC, ill sell you mine. you live in the desert, you need it--the hottest it gets here is 100*, i wanted to do the A/C delete anyway.
