This car has 2 different compressors 1 is SANDEN and other is CV171 but both require a specail puller to remove the outer clutch hub This puller screws on to the main shaft and has a threaded nut (outer side ) that screws into hub this removes hub then remove snap ring off compressor snout and install a spacer (specail tool) this covers the main shaft not to damage thrust bearing internal of compressor and a second puller can remove pulley. Most bearings are swedge fitted so the whole pulley needs to be replaced this comes in kit with a clutch coil also it is held on with a snap ring also. there are small washers (shims) that adjust the air gap on the pulley to hub set @ .025-.045

2005 Dodge ram 3.8 manual, I've changed the throw out bearing and clutch. Still making noise, want shift in gear while running. What could it be?
Did you change the pilot bearing when you changed the clutch? The pilot bearing is in the center of the flywheel, and the input shaft of the transmission fits into it. If the bearing is frozen, or nearly so, it will cause the input shaft to spin with the flywheel regardless of whether the clutch is released or not. I had this issue on my Dakota, and I had to turn the engine off to get the truck in reverse or first. Once going, the synchronizers allowed me to shift up.
If you can start the engine while in first gear and the clutch depressed and your foot on the brake, then slowly release the clutch and the truck moves, this is probably the issue.
Unfortunately, to replace the pilot bearing, you have to remove the transmission again.

The clutch release bearing I think is going out in my 96 Dakota can I just change it and what does changing it intail
removal of the gearbox required
you can replace just the bearing
but because it is a lot of work
it is better to fit the complete clutch kit

Manual Transmission - 2001 Ford Escape
Hopefully only your linkage, but may also be your throwout bearing going pain to change but with right tools couple hrs work might as well change clutch and pressure plate as well cause that\'s a usual if changing bearing or clutch pressure plate needs to come off. But as I said I\'d check linkage first. Hope this helps

Squealing noise when releasing clutch
You might have to change your release bearing. When you change this, you have to change the pressure plate, Clutch disk, the pilot bearing as well to assure you of a longer time without problems.

I changed my clutch and releasing bearing but the noise is still there. When ever i release the clutch the noise starts like the release bearing problem and when i take off in first and second gear there...
a release bearing will make noise when you push on the clutch, the input shaft bearing will make noise when you release the clutch, the transmission will have to be removed and torn down to replace the bearing.

What size serpentine belt does a 1988 chevy 1500 pickup take when you bypass the AIR pump?
you can change the clutch on the Ac compressor which has the bearing in it so if the bearing is seized you only have to change the clutch on the end and then you can have your AC working as well without changing the belt ,these clutch units are that expensive and if you can remove the bearing and just replace the bearing on its own then the bearing is about 20 euros or so .

I have a 2002 silverado 4.3 liter.The a/c clutch is starting to freeze up.Can I just change the clutch or do I have to change the whole compressor.
You can change the the clutch, but most of the time the bearing is the problem and most places don't want the hassle to replace a $30 bearing due to labor time. New clutch will be easier time wise which will have the new bearing install already. Both proceedures take special tools, but not to hard. Hope this helped.

How easy is it to replace a noisy clutch thrust bearing. 53 plate Ford Focus 1.6 petrol zetec.
The thrust bearing is normally a part of a new clutch kit.Comprises pressure plate, clutch plate and thrust bearing.You will need to remove the gear box to change the bearing.The bearing basically slides onto the gearbox shaft. Recommend changing all three rather than just the beaing.You may want to get quotes from garages as dealers are expensive.

Squeeling noise when pressing the clutch
That noise is coming from the throw-out bearing, its dry and worn needs to be replaced. While you are in there you should do the whole clutch job becuse you need to remove the tranny to change that bearing which consists of Pressure plate,clutch plate throw-out bearing center bearing and resurfacing of flywheel.maybe even a new slave cylinder. Good Luck
