Damaged A/c pulley

[HarryPotter]

I damaged my A/c pulley in a minor accident. (shit going under car) My compressor has a pulley with 2 areas to put a belt. its like a dual pulley type thing. The front one which I use to use is dented in a bit, so I was thinking if I could take it off flip it around (the pulley) and just use the other good one. But I am not sure if I can do this. I dunno figured i'd ask before I waste my time.

Figured I'd better start fixing the car since it's been sitting in my driveway for a better part of a year.

Why not just get a new pulley? I have 2 old compressor that I could sell you a pulley off of for cheap, pm me if your interested.

I haven't the slightest clue if my compressor is stock or not. My car was converted to r134a at some point. I'll take a look.

I don't think you'll be able to get the clutch/pulley assy. off of the compressor, and if you do you won't be able to simply flip the outer pulley portion around. I suggest using a brass drift and a hammer to beat it back into shape.

Yeah It's just a tiny little indent on the pulley.
