Got the Diff Guards on today - Snorkel tommorrow. :D

wheels244:
And the Rear :D

wheels244:
Anyone know what this  :?:
And more importantly what it does :?:  
I've looked in the Bible according to Haynes and can see no mention of it.
Anyway - I've taken it off 'cos it wouldn't fit with the front diff guard. It bolted to the steering damper mounting bracket which is attached to the axle. I looked on my Hybrid and there isn't one there.

Any ideas  :?:

Its the harmonic damper for damping harmonics.

Or for absorbing vibrations from the axle to stop them going through the steering back to the steering wheel.

I've known of a few people who have took this off with no adverse effects, see how it drives if it feels any different.

Cheers Chris

I new it was a harmonic something or other - but I didn't know what it was for.
Any idea how it works ? It seems to be just a heavy steel disc, rubber mounted to an inner steel disc - do they work or is it just dead weight :?:

Thanks

Rob :D
