"special tools" for it.. There has to be a way without buyin even more shit. lol if anybody knows plz reply ... thanks

we always use a specific clutch puller, not really any other way to do it without wrecking something unless you make your own tool. as long as the clutch still rolls smoothly, just unplug the compressor and it will simply freewheel. either that or take the belt off.

Does take a special tool that screws into the clutch center with a big bolt that pushes on the center shaft that pulls the clutch. Might be ahead to replace the compressor in the long run anyway.

yeah, our tool has several diffent bolts that thread into the shaft, depending on the compressor, and has a "T" kind of shape on the end with adjustable witdth and prongs that latch onto the clutch groove and pulls the clutch off with a large ratchet... rather simple actually. just dont go trying to bash it off with a hammer and screwdriver or anything like that
