Angry Tahoe A/C problems 1996

I have a Tahoe, and it seems like every day something different goes wrong with it.

It has 130,000 miles on it.. which isn't that bad..

Anyways, I had a problem with the A/C only working on the high setting.. then it quit. So I bought a new control/switch unit. Now, 3 months later, it is doing it again. What should I replace..??

Also, another A/C problem this time under the hood. It seems to be working fine.. but there is a noise as the belt goes around when the clutch fan kicks on. The noise is evident when it is off.. but gets a lot louder when the clutch fan turns on again..it sounds like something is rubbing as it goes around. The belt is turning, and doesn't look like its slipping.. but the noise is very annoying.

Ok.. now onto the next problem. I get oil changes regularly and on time.. yet now my engine has a slight tick. Do I need to replace the engine now? What is that ticking sound as I accelerate? Can it be fixed without replacing the engine?

I'm going to give all the advice I get on these problems to my fiance to fix.. he is very handy, thank God. I just think I need to trade in.. lol, the Avalanche is looking good to me now, and hopefully they have a lot less problems..

oh, and the wipers quit.. but thats under recall. Yes!!
