The air blows cold but the clutch is going out. There's alot of clutch dust under the hood. I have the replacement clutch parts just wondering if there is a guide or good pics on the procedure to change it.

Can be done in situ, but best to have 4 hands and lots of patients.

Hey guys finally got a chance to replace the clutch now the ac doesn't blow cold anymore. Check the coil for continuity and it was good. Also replaced the relay. Anything else I should check before I just get a new compressor?

What made you think the original clutch was going bad? Mine worked good when both the engine and weather were cool, but when hot the clutch did not have enuff traction to spin the compressor.

Is the clutch engaging?
Is there power to the clutch coil when the A/C is on? Something to check is the air-gap between the hub and pulley. If it's too wide the energized coil can't pull it in. It should be set about .020" adjust it by adding or removing the shims behind the hub.
