Dayco PB1717N Engine Harmonic Balancer

Dayco PB1717N Harmonic Balancer Overview

The Dayco PB1717N is a premium OEM replacement harmonic balancer for select Chrysler, Dodge, and Magnum applications. It is built with a neutral counterweight balance, cast iron outer ring, and integrated 6-groove serpentine pulley to support proper crankshaft damping and accessory drive operation.

Compatible with 2005-2010 Chrysler 300, 2006-2010 Dodge Charger, and 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum, this Dayco harmonic balancer is a direct-fit engine component for vehicles that require timing marks and a 30.00 mm crank bore.

Detailed Description

Dayco PB1717N is a crankshaft harmonic balancer engineered for OE-style replacement in Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Dodge Magnum applications. The neutral balance configuration, 51.50 mm nose outside diameter, and 35.00 mm ring width support proper fitment where the original engine setup calls for a non-counterweighted balancer. The single integrated serpentine pulley uses six grooves to match the accessory drive layout on the listed vehicles.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Crankshaft vibration caused by a worn or damaged balancer
• Accessory belt tracking issues related to pulley wear
• Timing mark visibility problems during engine service
• Noise or imbalance from a deteriorated harmonic damper
• Fitment issues when replacing the original OEM-style balancer

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify crank bore, nose diameter, pulley groove count, and timing mark location before installation. The PB1717N does not include hardware, installation instructions, or a woodruff key, so reuse or source the correct engine-specific components as required. Confirm the crankshaft snout and pulley alignment on 2005-2010 Chrysler 300, 2006-2010 Dodge Charger, and 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum applications before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Dayco’s Premium OEM Replacement Balancer line is built for direct replacement use in factory-style engine applications. PB1717N is manufactured with a cast iron outer ring and OE-matching service features such as timing marks to support accurate installation and dependable operation.
