This kit includes everything needed to replace your vibration damper and service your drive belt system!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVibration Dampers (also called Harmonic Dampers or Harmonic Balancers) absorb and remove unwanted vibrations due to torsional twisting of the crankshaft. During cylinder combustions, the crank quickly flexes ever so slightly, resulting in resonance vibrations. These vibrations could lead to damage of the crankshaft or crank bearings over time if not accounted for. The vibration damper helps to eliminate these vibrations, thereby extending the life of your engine's mechanical components and preventing damage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your vibration damper has failed, you will likely notice excess engine vibrations or shaking that will gradually get worse, especially around certain RPMs where the vibration resonance is most pronounced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit includes all of the components necessary to replace your damper with an OEM damper from Corteco, including belts, pulleys, hardware, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso included in this kit is a brand-new line of specialty tools from Schwaben designed specifically for this replacement!
