Aussie dollars aren't much different in value than US dollars. I deal with proff on a fairly regular basis. Parts for his Fieros, his Toyota Hilux diesel and his Jeep Liberty are ungodly expensive over there. I can get them, ship them with import duties and he still comes out at less than half price on most things. Things over there are just plain expensive.

I wasn't referring to the exchange rate, but that it's probably in Australia.
That is sort of a bad example I used, but the point is that you can buy the exact same product for a very wide price range, the one I got cost $20.00 delivered, and I see the same ones many places for $75.00 to $100. Larry
No, they will be in the wrong place, but I don't have markers on the timing cover I have, so I just made a little pointer and move it to point to the TDC mark when the #1 is at TDC, it is on this engine:
The machine shop I used put both on a shaft with a keyway. They lined up the tooling with the marks on the 2.8, clamped the unit to a milling machine and traveled the bed to cut marks in the new balancer. If the outer ring has slipped, this won't work, though.
Another balancer lesson, when transfering the marks, don't put the balancers face to face, it doesn't work. Make sure they both face the same direction.
