81 Replace Air cond. Compressor

My ac was working OK last year. Clutch bearing making noise this year after I cleaned the thing. I degunked it and hosed it good. Had to tighten/replace the little bolts on the outside of the hub

Looks like a whole new compressor and clutch from Rock Auto is only 'bout $150. Before seeing the price of $150 Was thinking of just replacing the bearing and replaceing the seal since it has a slow leak, or just getting a whole newcluth. Heck the clutch is about $85

Just wondered what others have done? Just replace the whole compressor with clutch?

It also has the two post elec plug. Is that what is called the switch type compressor?
