I'm getting A/C parts from eBay. I was willing to pay a little more to buy from eEuro, but they don't stock these items. You can get the 'bearing only' from "coldzone777" for $22.50, or the bearing, coil & clutch plate 'kit' from "allforauto" for $94.75. You only need a 14mm socket & a medium-sized snapring plier to remove the clutch plate & pulley. Oh, & some way to hold the clutch plate in place in order to break the nut free.
When I removed my pulley, the coil & clutch looked still decent. Like you, I was worried that it was something inside the compressor. But based on offline conversations with Edison517 (aka Seth), I went ahead & ordered the bearing only. He went thru similar issues with his A/C & the pulley bearing seems to be all that's needed. I figure, at $22.50, it's a cheap & easy experiment. I'm not out tons of time & money if it doesn't fix the problem. If it IS the compressor itself, I can get the short belt for now & wait a few months until after our upcoming vacation expenses have passed.
I'll post the results of the bearing swap, which will happen next weekend.
