Looks good. Any particular problems with the removal/install? Where did you git yer new bearing from? 
it is not difficult.for example: for pulley you do not need special tools like puller, you can take it out by hand.Looks good. Any particular problems with the removal/install? Where did you git yer new bearing from?![]()
I am going through this same exact process right now because I believe the clutch bearing is gone. I have the non-ac belt on with probably less than a mm of clearance as well. The ac compressor is unmounted, but I can't seem to get the pressure plate off. Do you have any tips on how you got it off, did you buy or rent the sst, if so, where? Thanks.Total bust. I finally managed to get that pressure plate off. I actually did not screw it up bad enough to make it un-usable.
No, it did that itself. The first thing I found when I got the pressure plate off was that the first snap ring was only 1/3rd there. And that 1/3rd was in two pieces. (the rest was metal dust) Upon further inspection, it looks to me as if the snap ring is what let loose first. This appears to have allowed the inner race of the bearing to spin on the shaft and/or catch in the groove that the snap ring was in - causing the groove to become unable to even hold another snap ring.
Also in the end, I busted part of said groove off. I figure because of the way it was worn.
And that makes the compressor no-good as well. Funny thing is - the bearing itself appears to be fine :lol:
Edit: Will post pictures at a later time.
