WTB Crankshaft Pulley c32

Was washing the car on the weekend and popped under the hood and noticed the rubber bonding on the harmonic balancer is starting to stick out. Before it starts causing serious damage I thought it would be a good time to upgrade to a larger diameter rather than replacing it with an oem part. Question is does anyone have one they want to sell and more importantly is prepared to send it to Sydney Australia? Would prefer a 185mm but if the price is right would consider 178/181mm. Easiest way for me to pay is through Paypal or credit card if its a seller. We have 98 octane fuel everywhere and 100 octane at some places so I think the 185mm would be a perfect choice. Tuning shouldnt be a problem as there are many places who can tune OBDII. Was there a recall on '02 C32's with regard to the bonding coming apart? I know it seems to be a relatively common problem.

Cheers from down under

The stock harmonic balancer problem affects a number of models (including my ML too) across a number of years. I'm not sure if there was a recall. When it goes, I've heard it can be pretty nasty.

I am selling my C32 and will likely be returning it to stock form, removing the evosport overdrive pulley system. I also may be in Sydney next month. Let me know if you're interested...

Thanks for the offers guys, Jerry came through and will be ordering the 185mm pulley. Im confident it will give me the extra grunt Im looking for. (Ever since the SRT8 Jeep smoked me off the line the other day) Damn they're quick out of the hole.

***************Happy New Year All************
