Fixed the Problem

If you don't have a Harmonic puller/installer you need to rent one. If you rent it make sure the set is complete. Be prepared to put down about a $100 deposit that you will get back after you return the equipment. All and all the process is pretty easy but make sure you research the process before you tackle the job if it is the first time you are doing this. The instructions are not really helpful.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Good for about 5 years or so.

Replaced for the second time in about 5 years.
The first one i received this go around seemed a little off so i exchanged it. The second looked only slightly better but the part did the job.

Not worth a second chance.....
I bought this to replace the balancer on my 95 Mustang GT. My old one was wobbling so badly that the entire car shook at idle and around 2000 RPM. I decided to try this one as money was tight and I figured it would be a good replacement. That was two months ago.....Now, I've started to notice the vibration coming back more and more over the past couple of weeks. Don't waste your money on this unless its an absolute emergency repair, and you plan on doing the job again in the very, very near future. Put a little bit of extra money into it and get a better balancer. This is not a part to skimp on, and Doorman really really missed the mark here.

Good performance. Poor markings
I bought this balancer as part of an engine rebuild. The balancer fits and works fine, but the timing marks are extremely poor. As a result it was very difficult to set and time the engine properly.

Upgrade to next balancer
This thing may spec out correctly, but you cant read the timing marks. Spend the extra money and buy the upgraded balancer.
