Update to the update... So my compressor blew up. I went out on a camping trip and I guess driving on the freeway was too much because it burned up and spat melted plastic everywhere. I'm guessing the compressor is why my A/C sucked in the first place. Anywho, I replaced the it with a delete pulley until I can get some money for a new compressor. (Luckily the weather has been in the 80's and not 100's.)
I just wanted to say thank you for all who pitched in and offered their expertise! You are what make Cherokeeforum great!

No problem but that's really weird the only plastic around the compressor I can think of is the fan shroud, did something get freaky with the belt? Compressor & clutch itself are pretty much all metal the hoses are rubber & metal.

Huh. I was thinking the clutch was made with some plastic? The belt is completely fine. No damage.
