Just changed this clutch on a 95 F150 4.9 liter. Most amazing part is that is was still working and cooling great. If the compressor was running, it was fine. It was when the compressor kicked off and the pulley had to free wheel it got a little noisy.

The old pulley and bearing:


As compared to the new bearing:


The old friction plate and pressure plate (should be in one piece):




And the old clutch coil. Charred and flaking, but still work when removed:

 

Thanks for linking to this from my request, you’re right, this is my exact issue! I figured out that if the compressor is running, I don’t have any issues.

I’m going to follow your photos and the video you linked to.

Thanks again!

 

That is amazing!

 

Looks like you got your money's worth out of that one.
