What to do with a delaminated harmonic damper? The outer ring on mine came off completely today. No worries, I have a known good one to slap on the engine. But is there any way to fix one? I don't want to chuck it in the trash - slant parts are becoming increasingly rare by the day. I figure someone could use it some day, maybe even me.

Replace it.

Send it to Damper Doctor or Damper Dudes, but...

Naw. The Pioneer damper (or the ATP, or the Dayco PowerBond, or the Dorman) is a couple of mouseclicks away; any of them will work fine on your engine. Most of them are good quality Australian parts. Re-use the original front (power steer) and/or rear (air condition) bolt-on auxiliary pulleys as needed. Or if you'd rather have a factory Dodge truck heavy-duty 3-groove damper, I have one left on the shelf, new in box; send me a PM.

Thanks, Dan. I'll squirrel this away in the parts lager and someday send it to damper dudes. I didn't know if they were readily available, but looks like they aren't as rare as I thought.
