. I have been involved with rebuilding Harmonic Balancers since 1979. . Beginning with ' balancers for Chevrolet Corvair engines and later expanding to include other discontinued balancers, we have done approximately 10,000 to date. . I do all the work myself so there is a consistant level of quality and attention. Over the years I have made improvements in rubber formulation, chemical bonding, and techniques. . I now also add an internal electrical grounding spring for those with balancer rings that drive v-belts (cast inside the rubber); this bleeds off static electricity which might otherwise cause radio static. (Ford products usually included a somewhat more primative ground- actually a staple through the rubber strip) . By rebuilding your harmonic balancer by hand, I believe you will get better quality and consistent results. (certain other rebuilders hire workers and may have mechanized parts of their rebuilding operations.) . If you have specific questions, call me: David Langsather ("Dale"), at 1-503 364-8685 PST 3425 Fairhaven Avenue N.E. Dale Manufacturing, Salem, Oregon 97301 (USA) |

Here I am with my very delightful daughter Ingrid. ( I chose this picture because it actually shows me in a clean work outfit!) I may not be very photogenic, but I know someone who is... I do all the harmonic balancer work myself, so you can be assured of consistent quality of workmanship. |
