Good question Nite Train, and that I do not know, it would really suck if he spent all that time and money and it was a $50 missing part.
I figured that the DII's did not have them.

SO..............how would you know if this balancer was "bad" , or worn out ??

mine got knocked off on a wheeling trip... i pulled up to the end of the trail and gave the truck a once over and the whole thing was dangling by the cable...


thats how i could tell mine was worn out...

Dangling is usually a good sign of worn out.. lmao..

I actually had one on the front, got another from e-bay and put it on the rear. I figure for $10 I would try it. The rear vibe went down. almost feels new...

I always looked at that wheel as a device for when offroading to stop from damaging the oil pan, or other low hanging parts under the truck.. I have had that on my Xterra 4x4 as well.. yet its not on the 2wheel drive version... just a guess..

so maybe i should pull the one off my other rover and slap it on there then...

While wheeling offroad, all it does is get in the way and get knocked off...

It is a vibration dampner, not a harmonic balancer.
