No drive to NH for me, especially without AC . I'll do all the labor myself. It's the financial end that's a kick in the nads. You could just send a check . But if it's anything like mine, it wouldn't get ya very far. And now she told me it's acting like a dog on take off and low end. So by my research on here, it's plenum time. Shoot me now.....

You'll get it working, and for a lot cheaper than owning a new truck if you compare the #'s.

The clutch is an easy swap, check your service manual for specifics. But i found one at the jy that was similar rented a three jaw puller from autozone and twenty min and $18 later i had the needed parts. Also you will need snap ring pliers and a pair of channel locks to keep the clutch stationary while you take armature nut off.

Where did you get your clutch at Verate? I got a puller, snapring pliers, and quite a few other assorted tools.

At the local junkyard, most sanden compressors are of the same family so find dodge product of simililar engine and vintage and you should be fine.
