You too can be awesome, start by changing out your own AC Compressor!īefore I start let me say this. ![]() I'd say I work hard and like to play hard so in general thats awesome all in it's self. I was born like this but defiantly got some of it from my father. AutoZone lets you rent the tools with a full refund. I had to rent the Evaporator Vacuum Pump and a set of Gauges. I was slightly concerned and felt like this may be more than I can handle but after several Youtube videos and a few Toyota Tundra research. I've worked as an HVAC Tech/Installer for a rough 4 years when I was younger. This is my first time doing HVAC on a vehicle. I have no clue but chances are they are very similar and you could probably get by with this write up for your needs. Is my 1st Gen or 3rd Gen exactly like the 2nd Gen? My luck the compressor would go shortly after I did all the work for the clutch/bearing. I couldn't see another easier way to change out just the clutch other than just changing it all if I was down there anyway's. Why didn't you just change out just the Clutch? Maybe this will help another Tundra owner out there. I took a ton of pictures and figured I try to do a write up since I couldn't find crap that was specific to my 2nd Gen Tundra. I've priced several shops in SoCal to do the work but I don't have $1,000's right now to be tossing at the Tundra. Now, I'm no Certified Mechanic but I'm pretty good with a wrench. After a month of listening to the AC Compressor Pump bearing squealing I finally maned up and changed it before it seized and caused me more problems.
