Default AC Clutch Coil

Anyone ever change the clutch coil while its still on the truck? If so, how hard was it?

You should get some special tools to do it. I have done them. The fun part is once in a while I get one that won't come a part and I end up putting a compressor on.

Is it easier to do it from the top or bottom?

Its easier to just replace the compressor. There isnt enough room to get the clutch puller in there to get it off.

You can do it from underneath the vehicle. I did just the other week. See my thread here: https://www.f150forum.com/f6/c-compr...oughts-308765/

So you just used metal shims instead of a puller. Im going to try that. Thanks for the reply.
