OK, I give up

HowTF do you remove the clutch from the RV2 A/C compressor.

I have looked at the youtube videos -
I have read and reread the FSM -
I have Googled "mopar a/c rv2 compressor remove" -

And I still can not figure out how to do it.

I tried the 5/8" X 2-1/2" hex bolt method and all it did was ruin the threads in the clutch pully. Now I'm F**KED

It's a taper fit onto the shaft, usually just hold clutch up with one hand and tap hammer at various points around clutch and compressor drops onto a pile of rags. Check FSM.

That was one of Google hits I referenced earlier. It was that link that had me use the bolt trick. Damn if that bolt didn't mess up the threads real bad on the pulley.
Thanks anyway.

I'll get my BFH and give it a shot tomorrow.
Thanks

Son of a *****.
I just picked up the compressor by the clutch to whack it with a hammer and the damn compressor slipped right out.

I must have scared it out...

Real truckers git 'er done. Nice advice, Dave.

The compressor must have seen the hammer, walk softly and carry a big stick comes to mind.
