Answer

Hello!

To perfrom the clutch hub removal and then to reinatall it without damage, special tools are required. I have posted the procedure for you below; you will find the puller and installer part numbers in the procedure. Many parts stores or aftermarket tool suppliers (or the store where you are purchasing the replacement parts) can also supply you with the special tools required to do this repair.

I hope this is helpful; if so, please click my accept button! Thanks!

  1. Clamp the holding fixture J 33026 in a vise and attach compressor to holding fixture with thumb screws J 330261.
  2. With center Screw forcing tip in place to thrust against the end of the shaft, thread the Clutch Plate and Hub Assembly Installer-Remover J 33013-B into the hub. Hold the body of the remover with a wrench and turn the center screw into the remover body to remove the clutch plate and hub assembly. NOTICE: Do not drive or pound on the clutch hub or shaft. Internal damage to compressor may result. The forcing tip on J 33013-B remover-installer center screw must be flat or the end of the shaft/axial plate assembly will be damaged.
  3. Remove the shaft key and retain for reassembly.

Install or Connect

  1. Install the shaft key into the hub key groove. Allow the key to project approximately 3.2mm (1/8") out of the keyway. The shaft key is curved slightly to provide an interference fit in the hub key groove.
  2. Be sure the frictional surface of the clutch plate and the clutch rotor are clean before installing the clutch plate and hub assembly.
  3. Align the shaft key with the shaft keyway and place the clutch plate and the hub assembly onto the compressor shaft.
  4. Remove the forcing tip on J 33013-B clutch plate and hub assembly installer-remover center screw and reverse the body direction on the center screw, as shown in the illustration.
  5. Install the clutch plate and hub installer-remover J 33013-B with bearing as shown in the illustration. The body of the J 33013-B installer-remover should be backed off sufficiently to allow the center screw to be threaded onto the end of the compressor shaft.
  6. Hold the center screw with a wrench. Tighten the hex portion of the installer-remover J 33013-B body to press the hub onto the shaft. Tighten the body several turns, remove the installer and check to see that the shaft key is still in place In the keyway before Installing the clutch plate and hub assembly to its final position. The air gap between frictional surfaces of the clutch plate and clutch rotor should be 0.50-0.76mm (0.020-0.030"). NOTICE: If the center screw is threaded fully onto the end of the compressor shaft. or if the body of the installer is held and the center screw is rotated, the key will wedge and will break the clutch hub.
  7. Remove installer J 33013-B, check for proper positioning of the shaft key (even or slightly above the clutch hub).
  8. Spin the pulley rotor by hand to see that the rotor is not rubbing the clutch drive plate.
