Anyone have a lower crank pulley for sale? My ripped off lol
Didnt know this was even an issue, but apparently many have have the same happen.
The rubber between the pulley and the balancer just let go and spun the pulley right off the harmonic balancer.
Parts.com has them for $405 new, but im toying with the idea of a 168-175mm. Anyone have one for sale? ill consider all.

Yes the stocker uses a rubber type filler to soften the blow of supercharger engagment, over time the rubber breaks down and the Crank Pulley ribbed portion will begin to wobble... replace it when a gap is noticeable between the two or wish you did
Welding to the harmonic balancer barrel will only buy time as I found out..
Everyone go check your crank pulley for wobbling please

I told them to inspect the crank pulley telling them it looked like it wobbles.
They said "this is normal and within spec".....I'd love to see a spec that says "it can have XX deflection / wobble".

Does anyone know if this failure is age related thing or just are there just random defective ones? Seems like there is no point buying a used 14yrs old one

either stock or market make sure u get a brand new one. this is one part you don't want to mess with... need a good installer too..
its a pain if the pulley is not true and install poorly .. cost you time n big money if the key gets chewed up
