Dayco PB1214N Engine Harmonic Balancer

Dayco Premium OEM Replacement Balancer PB1214N

The Dayco PB1214N is a premium OEM replacement engine harmonic balancer built for Ford truck and van applications that need accurate crankshaft vibration control. It features a ring-weighted counterweight balance, a grey iron outer ring, and timing marks for service alignment.
