aC clutch/out of shims

Hey guys. Im having intermittent AC. I have already pulled the last of the shims 2 summers ago.

what are my options? Can I get a new clutch kit? Or am I to the point now where I get a new compressor?

If the clutch is the failure point, you can purchase a new clutch kit. If you go to Rock Auto, check out the 5% off code at the link below.

The clutch is replaceable without losing any refrigerant or needing any special tools.

Like the others have said, you can buy just the clutch assembly. Amazon has them too.

I suggest replacing the pigtail while you are at it.
