Tools Required 

J 33013-B  Hub and Drive Plate Remover/Installer. See Special Tools and Equipment .

J 33022  Shaft Nut Socket. See Special Tools and Equipment .

J 33027-A  Clutch Hub Holding Tool. See Special Tools and Equipment .

J 42428  Compressor Holding Fixture. See Special Tools and Equipment .

  2. Be sure the frictional surface of the clutch plate and the pulley rotor are clean before installing the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly.
    3. NOTE: Do not drive or pound on the clutch hub or the shaft. Internal damage to compressor may result.
  3. Align the clutch hub key with the shaft keyway. Place the clutch drive plate and hub assembly onto the compressor shaft.
    4. IMPORTANT: If the center bolt is threaded fully onto the end of the compressor shaft, or if the body of the J 33013-B  (1) is held and the center bolt is rotated, the key will wedge and could break the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly. See Special Tools and Equipment .

  4. Remove the J 33013-B  (1) center bolt and reverse the body direction on the center bolt. See Special Tools and Equipment . The body of the J 33013-B  (1) should be backed off sufficiently to allow the center bolt to be threaded onto the end of the compressor shaft.
  5. Install the J 33013-B  (1) and the bearing onto the clutch drive plate. See Special Tools and Equipment . Thread the center bolt onto the compressor shaft.
  6. Hold the center bolt with a wrench. Tighten the hex portion of the J 33013-B  (1) body to press the hub onto the shaft. See Special Tools and Equipment . Tighten the body several turns.
  7. Remove the J 33013-B  (1) and check to see that the clutch hub key is still in place in the keyway before installing the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly to its final position. See Special Tools and Equipment . The air gap between frictional surfaces of the clutch drive plate and the clutch pulley rotor should be 0.38-0.64 mm (0.015-0.025 in).
  8. Remove the J 33013-B  . See Special Tools and Equipment . Check for proper positioning of the clutch hub key. It should be even or slightly above the clutch hub.
    9. NOTE: Refer to Fastener Notice in Cautions and Notices.

    Tighten:  Tighten the clutch plate and hub assembly nut to 17 N.m (13 lb ft).

  10. Spin the pulley rotor by hand to verify that the pulley is not rubbing the clutch drive plate.
