Hi,
Does anyone know what threadsize it is on the tool used to pull off the A/C clutch on a 95 blazer (V6 CPI code Z) (Harrison R-4 compressor?)?
As I do not have any possibility to rent or loan a tool I may have to make one on the lathe...
(I need to replace the cluth bearing, will try to take some pics while doing it and see if I can post a how to...)

go to the scrap yard to get a replacement...the bearing removal is not easy with the correct tools...with time and equiptment it is possible to create a set of fixtures to pull/press the clutch plate/bearing...
If you like to challange yourself with a difficult task this is a good project..

Well, I think this is a fun little project.
Made my own removal tool:
thread on the clutch plate is about 21.5 mm x 16tpi
I put in a M12 bolt i center of the tool to push on the compressor spindel/axis.
When I got the clutch plate off I saw that I have a small leak of ref. around the spindel, but have no $$ to fix it now :shakehead
The thread on the spindel looks to be UNF 3/8, 24tpi, good to know when I make tha installer tool...
Tomorow I'll try to pull off the pully and bearing...
