Default AC Compressor Clutch

After charging my system this summer with a 134 retrofit kit, which worked great; I was messing around in the engine and loosened my AC compressor. Forgot to tighten it and threw a belt which knocked off the spade terminals to the AC clutch.
So now, can I pull the clutch or should I just get a rebuilt compressor put it on and pay for a vacuum pump down/charge?
I don't have a clutch puller.
Thanks
PS. It'e a 79 Sb with an R4 compressor

Thanks, I'll check around for the tools. You can never have enough tools even if you only use them once!
