Noise from A/C pully or clutch

[98Nor*CalStang]

Its been about 2 months now since this noise started to happen. When I turn the A/C or when ever the A/C clutch engages it starts to make this weird like rubbing noise. Not sure what it is. Could it be time to replace the pully or is it the A/C clutch?

Sounds like one of the compressor bearings going. If you end up replacing the compressor, replace the receiver/dryer while your at it. Nothing like a healthy A/C system.
