How do I replace harmonic balancer (wobbly)?
Does engine need to come out? or temporarily propped up while front engine mount is removed?

If anyone knows the procedure I appreciate the advice.

Thanks

Howdy,

Welcome Aboard!

You can replace it by removing the drive, put a suitable block under the engine and the front engine mount (assuming you have room in front to get to the damper with a puller to remove it)

You can then either sent it to the Damper Doctor for rebuild or exchange, or just buy one if you can find the right one. (I like the rebuild because you KNOW it'll fit when it's rebuilt)

Then re-install it, adjust the alignment and re-install the drive. (If you don't have an OEM manual, you might want to obtain one)

Regards,


Rick
