Hey all,
2005 Jeep Liberty 4x4 Limited 3.7l.
The AC compressor clutch and/or bearing is running very loud, wobbly, and also smoking if I let it run too long. So I'm trying to figure out what needs to be replaced. I'm guessing it's just a bad AC compressor clutch and/or bearing and I can purchase the assembly from amazon and just replace it. But maybe it's something else and someone more experienced than me can give me deeper insight into what could be causing it to run so badly.
Take a look at these videos for visual inspection and let me know what you think:
When it was just running loud (and slightly wobbly). At this point I didn't really know where the sound was coming from, but suspected the AC compressor:

After driving the vehicle for 20 minutes it started smoking:

Running it a day after it was smoking. Loud and very wobbly:

If it is just the AC compressor clutch assembly, would this kit from amazon be suitable for the repair?
