Compressor Clutch Replacement

I just got done searching for the topic. Couldn't find a thing.
I have done all of the necessary tests on my AC system. It is fully charged and in working order, however the compressor clutch will not engage when the AC is turned on. I have a spare compressor that when I plug it in, the clutch engages.
I would like to keep the system intact without losing the R12 and replace only the clutch on the compressor (swap them out).
Anyone know where I can get a puller to remove the clutch from the compressor? It is the Nippon Denso style compressor.

It may be just a break in the lead wire.
Have you tried testing with a jumper directly from the battery into the lead into the clutch?
That can be done with the ignition off.

It is definately a clutch issue, not any other problem. I just need to know how to remove the clutch and/or where to get a puller for it.
