Smile Loud clicking noises from compressor

I have a 2003 Ford Tuarus station wagon,and we have a this loud clicking noise coming from the compressor. I assume it's
the clutches? Can I just replace,fix whatever in this without replacing the whole compressor.Help
Thanks

why? it's pretty much normal sound, just ford being ford, it's louder than it needs to be. clutch is, probabaly, getting there...
yes, you can replace clutch only. takes very good hands and skill to do so without removing compressor off the engine. and that's if you were lucky and compressor is on the engine top, not down at the bottom. depends on how clutch is locked on the compressor spindle.
