2007 ram 2500 6.7 Cummins
Got in truck for weekend camping trip and the AC wouldn't blow cold. I got angry and rolled window down and turned vents off and struck out with the camper anyway.
When I got where I was going 1.5 hours down the road, the compressor was knocking like a monkey was in there with a hammer off and on.
I am getting vastly different answers from Google about the extent of parts to replace....
It isn't locked up yet. But I have an hour and a half trip home Sunday. So who knows by then. I might throw a belt and be stuck on the side of the road by then.
So my question..... If it doesn't lock up, and it's just the bearing in the clutch, just replace the compressor as a whole and recharge, right?
No need to change other components of the system if it doesn't lock the compressor, right?
