Q: Where can I find an A/C compressor clutch (compressor is fine).

asked by on August 26, 2016

I don't want to piece meal the purchase of a clutch because if the rotor is bad you have to take the whole thing off the compressor anyways. I'd prefer to spend a few more bucks for a new clutch unit since the labor is ~ the same.
