when i took the old one off i had to use a puller to get it off. however the new one just slid on, and i can pull it right off. even after its been torqued down, i can unbolt it and slid it off with my hands. is this normal? did i leave a piece out? thanks

you are the second one lately to post that the balancer did not have an interferance fit. im not sure i would feel comfortable with that. i think Rick91GT posted on the other thread about it (couple days ago), if you are interested in tracking down the other guy with the same problem (perhaps a PM to compare brands and experiences would work).

i always thought they should have an interferance fit, for whatever that is worth. good luck.

Yup, it's a interference fit, like .001-.002.
