001-051 Vibration Damper, Rubber

Preparatory Steps

WARNING
Batteries can emit explosive
gases. To reduce the
possibility of personal injury,
always ventilate the
compartment before
servicing the batteries. To
reduce the possibility of
arcing, remove the negative
(-) battery cable first and
attach the negative (-)
battery cable last.

Disconnect the batteries.

Remove the drive belt. Refer

to Procedure Procedure 008-
002

Remove

For front gear train engines,

remove the four capscrews.

For rear gear train engines,

remove the six capscrews.

NOTE: For 3.9 L and 5.9 L

engines, the crankshaft
speed indicator ring is
held in place by the same
capscrews as the vibration
damper. For 4.5 L and 6.7
L, with a rear gear train,
the crankshaft speed
indicator ring is a part of
the vibration damper
assembly and should not
be removed from the
vibration damper.

Remove the vibration

damper and crankshaft
speed indicator ring.

Clean and Inspect for Reuse

WARNING
Compressed air used for
cleaning should not exceed
207 kPa[30 psi]. Wear
protective clothing,
goggles/shield, and gloves
to reduce the possibility of
personal injury.

Using soapy water, clean any

oil from the crankshaft speed
indicator ring and vibration

damper.

Dry the crankshaft speed

indicator ring and vibration
damper with compressed air.

Inspect the crankshaft speed

indicator ring for missing
teeth, cracks, or damaged
surfaces. If any damage is
found, the crankshaft speed
indicator ring must be
replaced.

NOTE: For 4.5 L and 6.7 L

engines, with a rear gear
train, if the crankshaft
speed indicator ring is
found damaged, the whole
vibration damper assembly
must be replaced.

Check the mounting web for

cracks.

Check the alignment marks

on the inner and outer rings.

Check the index lines (A) on

the damper hub (B) and the
inertia member (C).

If the lines are more than

1.59-mm [1/16-in] out of
alignment, replace the
damper.

Inspect the vibration damper

hub for cracks.

Replace the damper if the

hub is cracked.

Inspect the rubber member

for deterioration.

If pieces of rubber are

missing or if the elastic
member is more than 3.18
mm [1/8 in] below the metal
surface, replace the vibration
damper.

NOTE: Look for forward

movement of the damper
ring on the hub. Replace
the damper if any
movement is detected.

Install

NOTE: Align the

crankshaft speed indicator
ring, and vibration damper
with the index pin located
on the nose of the
crankshaft.

Lubricate bolts with clean

engine oil.

Install the vibration damper

and crankshaft speed
indicator ring.

For front gear train engines,

tighten the four damper
capscrews in a criss-cross
pattern.

Torque Value:

1. 40 n.m [30 ft-lb]

2. Rotate 60 degrees

For rear gear train engines,

tighten the six vibration
damper capscrews in a
criss-cross pattern.

Torque Value:

1. 50 n.m [37 ft-lb]

2. Rotate 90 degrees

Finishing Steps

Install the drive belt. Refer to

Procedure Procedure 008-
002
