Being that the entire air condition system is under pressure, best results is to take it to someone qualified. If you want to do it yourself, remove the compressor. Remove the clutch disc and hub. Remove the pulley and clutch ring. Remove compressor pulley and air conditioner field coil. Install is the reverse.

The compressor works and when it did kick on, the A/C blew cold. Clean pulley bearing surface of A/C compressor head to remove any dirt or corrosion. Install A/C clutch pulley retaining snap ring with bevel side of snap ring out.
