Hi everyone, I have a A/C issue, hoping to get some insight on.
Car: 1970 Duster 225 factory air V2 compressor single groove
I had a bearing noise traced it down to the AC compressor, pulled the clutch pulley off and found the bearing was totally obliterated so I couldn't get any numbers off of it. Went to my local o'reilly's they found a bearing that their system said would fit but it was too tall so I couldn't get the retaining clip in, I searched eBay and found a NOS pulley that fits, but the coil is two small the pulley won't fit over the coil. I'm searched high and low and only parts I've been able to find are for it two groove system, haven't been able to find a coil that'll fit or that looks like it'll fit.
The pictures that are included on the post are of my old pulley there's no part number on it I have no idea what it's off of, can anybody ID what it is off of? I'm back to square one trying to find a bearing for that pulley well simultaneously still looking for a coil that might work.
Any help would be terrific, as this is my first classic car that I plan on daily driving and not restore, just trying to get it back to a solid runner. Another question the people that have been working on these Mopars for the past 50 years would it be easier to just remove the air conditioning completely, or just keep scouring the Internet hoping for the part that I need to surface.
Thanks, as always y'all are awesome (sorry for the essay)
