- Install the clutch hub key into the hub keyway. Allow the key to project approximately 3.2 mm (1/8 in.) out of the keyway. The hub key is curved slightly to provide an interference fit in the hub key groove.
- 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.
- Align the clutch hub key with the shaft keyway. Place the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly onto the compressor shaft.
- Remove the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B center bolt and reverse the body direction on the center bolt. The body of the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B should be backed off sufficiently to allow the center bolt to be threaded onto the end of the compressor shaft.
- Install the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B and the bearing onto the clutch drive plate. Thread the center bolt onto the compressor shaft.
- Hold the center bolt with a wrench. Tighten the hex portion of the hub and drive plate remover/installer J- 33013-B body to press the hub onto the shaft. Tighten the body several turns.
- Remove the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B 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. 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.).
- Remove the hub and drive plate remover/installer J-33013-B. Check for proper positioning of the clutch hub key. It should be even or slightly above the clutch hub.
- Install the shaft nut. Hold the clutch drive plate and the hub assembly with the clutch hub holding tool J-33027. Use the shaft nut socket J-33022 and tighten the nut against the compressor shaft shoulder.
Tighten:
Tighten the clutch plate and hub assembly retaining nut to 17 N.m (13 lb-ft).
