94 Deville AC Pully Bearing Question Help!
I have a 94 Deville with a loud AC Pully Bearing. Does any one know or has anyone replaced the bearing with out removing the AC Compressor. The AC works great and I dont want to have to remove the compressor. I have taken off the left front tire and the two splash shields. the frame is close to the cluch but it appears that it may be able to be removed with the minimal clearence. My next question is if I could massage the Pully off with a couple of two long screw drivers. I dont believe I could get a puller in there since the mounting bracket gives the pully next to no clearence.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I dont want to go to the dealer and pay an arm and a leg. They quoted me $300. labor alone to remove and replace the compressor and then there is still the charging.
Any advice will be appreciated.
