Horrible squeaking coming from my A/C compressor pulley

Hey guys, I have a horrible squeaking noise coming from my Air conditioner's pulley. Is there any way I can grease the bearing in there or swap out the bearing. It started quiet not it's getting so Loud it's like a small screetch and you can here it from like 40 feet away, it's embaressing. Anyone give any insight to this on how to possibly stop it (other than spraying WD-40 on it daily)?

First...is your A/C Fully charged? If its low it may not have enough oil in it.

Otherwise... I was quoted 305.00 for a new compressor...or you can get a 1LE Delete Pulley (Like me) for under 45.00 shipped. Depends on it you really need the A/C. Sounds like the same thing mine was doing before it seized up and ripped the tensioner pulley off the car and chewed up my belt.

I like the A/C in this car, it;s my daily driver and i'm not looking to get rid of the compressor or replace it, it looks just fine. I can get the bearings for the current compressor, I'd just REALLY like to know how to replace the bearing and or clutch assembly if needed. The AC is very cold, and it is pretty fully charged. (BTW, this is for my Impala SS, but it uses the same AC compressor
