A/C compressor bearings serviceable?

[Sal-XK]

I found a reman on ebay for 189.00. I think I will do the swap as suggested and get it recharged. I just hope the cheap reman lasts a while. We shall see!

From what I have read you need to evac the lines before you remove the compressor or it can cause damage. I'm sure Matt or someone can speak up on that for sure.

the lines are pressurized. the best thing to do is swing by the shop that's going to recharge it for you and ask them to evacuate the system first.
