CONCOURS PARTS sells new repro T-Bird/2-pulley dampers. I think Jim Weatherly makes them (?).

Lon, I just sold one, new old stock in the box to Don Hyde in Plano, Texas. Let me know if you would like his contact info with a pm.

You can also get a new fluid balancer from "Snowbird" although I don't know much about these or have current contact info. Other guys probably know on here. I see his stuff occasionally on EBAY and has good Y knowledge.

If you check with CASCO or some of the other tbird parts suppliers-they have them, sometimes or can reman a core.

This is one pricey part in case you didn't know.

LON, here are some pic's of a new original '55, 292; '56, 292/ 312; and '57, 312 T-Bird balancers.  If you need them, I may be able to get part nos. off of what is left on the box.  Let me know.  Charlie, Central Florida

All the non-supercharged T-Bird balancers are the same.  The supercharged ones have an extra sheave.  Bird balancers are different than the passenger car balancers.

Lon, i think you,re right, they are same except for the longer t bird ones, some do have a row of holes in them.

Are all early ( 55,56,57) Thunderbird balancers the same ??? Or ,are 312 Thunderbird balancers the only ones with the counter weight mounted behind ( unlike sedans )the fan belt pulleys . I know that 272-292 sedan harmonic balancers are the same but not sure about the 312 ,as they were not sold here in Au???
