Product Details

The MAHLE A229-1 Engine Harmonic Balancer Repair Sleeve is a cost-effective solution for repairing worn or grooved harmonic balancer hubs that cause oil leaks at the front crankshaft seal. This precision-engineered sleeve restores a smooth sealing surface without the need for expensive balancer replacement.

Key Features:

  • Constructed from nickel-plated formed steel for superior durability and corrosion resistance
  • 0.013-inch wall thickness provides a thin yet robust repair surface
  • Works with original size front crankshaft seals—no oversized seal required
  • Installs over worn or grooved balancer hub to create a new sealing surface
  • Compatible with multiple GM, AMC, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, Jeep, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac applications with 112, 121, 151, and 153 cubic inch engines
  • Includes installation collar for proper fitment

This repair sleeve is designed to be installed on the harmonic balancer hub using the included installation tool. The thin-wall design allows the sleeve to be pressed onto the balancer snout, creating a smooth, hard surface for the front seal to ride against. When properly installed with appropriate sealant, the MAHLE A229-1 provides a long-lasting repair that eliminates oil leaks caused by seal groove wear. MAHLE Original gaskets and sealing products are trusted by OEMs and technicians worldwide, meeting or exceeding original equipment specifications.

I am very pleased with the quickness my product was shipped. I have had problems with other products i have ordered once again Thank You.

great

No bad. Could indicate line size, like 5/16 in. I had to lookup Dorman's P/N to find the size. Tks

Great Price for this gasket!

easy to order

good

fairly easy, shipping was expensive though

Unbeleively fast shipping. I ordered on a Tuesday night, and it was delivered to my door by Thursday. Plus, the item was the cheapest with shipping on the web! I will most certainly be doing business with them again!

Great and easy

Thanks

My ARB 50qt fridge/freezer arrived quickly and it was way cheaper than anywhere else. I was a little leery only because of that. However, I received the fridge and saved about $65 over even Amazon. No problems.

So far so good
