A/C Coil 3.8l Impala 2001

I need to replace my A/C Coil..

Does anyone know how hard this is going to be. Or what all has to be removed to replace it?

Are you referring to the coil that pulls the clutch in on the compressor? if so, you'll need to remove the compressor clutch and the pulley/bearing assembly to get to it. It's kinda cramped, but it can be done without disconnecting the A/C lines and losing all your refridgerant.

No it's not on the compresser. it is in front of the car running along with the Radiator. When I was working on the car the jack I was using cave out smashed a bucket into the Coil and now I have a slow leak looks like a pain to replace.

I's sorry it was the A/C condenser not coil.

If anyone wants to know.. Changing out the AC condenser is about a 2 and half hour fix. You must pull the Radiator, and the condenser slides right out.
