A-Premium Air Conditioner AC Compressor Clutch Kit is a direct-fit replacement assembly (pulley, front plate, electromagnetic coil with bearing) engineered for Ram 1500/1500 Classic and 2500 V8 5.7L models.

If your truck's air conditioning clutch is noisy, slipping, or not engaging, this A-Premium kit provides the main mechanical and electrical components needed to restore compressor function without replacing the entire compressor. The kit is built to match the 7SBH17 compressor style, 12V electrical systems, and a 126 mm pulley diameter used on specific Ram V8 5.7L models.

What exactly comes in the kit and why does each part matter?

This package includes the pulley fitted with a bearing, the clutch's front plate, and the electromagnetic coil. Together those parts transfer engine power to the compressor when the A/C is engaged and isolate it when cooling is off, reducing wear compared with partial repairs.

  • Pulley with bearing — supports rotation and reduces friction for smooth operation.
  • Front plate — mates to the compressor to transmit torque when engaged.
  • Electromagnetic coil — creates the magnetic force to engage the clutch on command.

Will this clutch kit fit my Ram truck and how do I confirm fitment?

The kit is compatible with A-Premium 1500 AC Compressor Clutch and specified Ram models: Ram 1500 (2014–2018) V8 5.7L, Ram 1500 Classic (2019–2022) V8 5.7L, and Ram 2500 (2019) V8 5.7L. To avoid ordering mistakes, supply your vehicle details via the platform's vehicle selector or check the listing's special notes before purchase.

  • Compressor style: 7SBH17 — matches original equipment geometry.
  • Pulley groove count: 6 — aligns with factory drive belt configuration.
  • Pulley diameter: 126 mm — ensures proper belt path and tension.
  • Voltage: 12V — compatible with standard automotive electrical systems.

How difficult is installation and what should a DIYer expect?

Installation requires basic mechanical skills, hand tools, and safe access to the compressor on the engine. Expect to remove the belt, unbolt the old clutch components, transfer or replace the pulley and coil, and torque fasteners to specification; an experienced DIYer can complete this in a few hours.

  • Requires belt removal and clutch plate unbolting.
  • Proper coil air gap and alignment are critical for reliable engagement.
  • Follow vehicle service manual for torque specs and safety precautions.

What warranty and quality assurances are provided?

A-Premium backs this clutch kit with a one-year unlimited-mileage guarantee covering manufacturing defects. The brand supplies a range of automotive components and recommends confirming fitment via the listing tools to ensure peace of mind after installation.

  • One-year unlimited-mileage warranty from A-Premium.
  • Manufactured to match key OEM dimensions and electrical parameters.
  • Customer guidance available for fitment verification before purchase.

Who is this for: This A-Premium AC compressor clutch kit is aimed at owners and mechanics working on Ram 1500/1500 Classic and 2500 trucks with the 5.7L V8 who need an economical, direct-replacement option for a failing clutch assembly. It's suited to DIY repairers comfortable with engine-bay work and professional shops wanting a dependable replacement accessory that restores compressor coupling without the cost of a full compressor swap.
