My harmonic balancer developed a wobble and has rubber chunks coming off it, need a new one but no one seems to be able to get one for diesel engines, not looking for a fluid damper, just something oe. Anyone know where a good place/price.

Thanks,

Dave

 

You mean to say Cummins doesn't have one?

 

you can also find them online used for cheaper but ur gambling that its good and not as bad as the one you already have

 

hi
i got mine from cummins east 2yr ago for around 160.

 

Yeah, Cummins is usually the place to get things for the engine. They're always top notch quality, and tend to have surprisingly cheap prices as well!

 

Best to spend the $160 and not cheap out looking for a deal on something like this...Not good for the crank if its has a wobble...

 

Your spending the money to replace why not upgrade?

 

What's the upgrade?

 

a fluid damper but theyre usually $400+

 

Yes that or the ati superdampner but thats around the same price. I havent gotten to that point yet but i think thats on this summers list. Whats the difference between a harmonic balencer a fluid dampner and the ati super dampner

 

Is there a big difference between stock and a fluid dampener?

 

Yeah...Price!! lolol fluid damper uses fluid obviously to dampen the vibration and a balancer uses rubber

 

Haha i knew that, can you tell a difference in it between the two? Anyone have a used stocker sitting around they are wanting to sell?

 

To my understanding the only real reason to go with a fluid damper is if you want to run in excess of 3000 rpm for extended periods.
Otherwise the stocker does just just fine.

 

Guess Cummins is my only option...$175.00 out of my bodywork fund lol
