Fluidampr's internally balanced damper for the 1989-1998 Dodge 5.9L Cummins 12 valve replaces the factory harmonic balancer with a viscous unit. Because the damper does not carry the stock timing notches, the Cummins sensor relocation kit is part of the installation on these trucks.
Key Features
- Viscous design uses a free-rotating inertia ring sealed inside a laser-welded steel housing, shearing through silicone to convert crankshaft torsional vibration into heat.
- Internally balanced; no additional crankshaft balancing required.
- Sensor relocation kit installation is covered by Fluidampr instruction sheet 4NFH.
- CNC machined, computer balanced high-grade steel with a corrosion resistant black zinc chromate finish.
- SFI 18.1 certified and made in the USA.
Fitment
- 1989-1998 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins
- Internal balance
Installation Notes
Crank bolt torque is 92 ft-lbs with OEM bolts. On 1992-1998 trucks, rotate the engine before removal so the magnetic pickup is not sitting on a notch in the stock damper, and record the pickup gap. Fluidampr recommends High Strength Bolt Kit p/n 300009 under 700 hp / 1,250 ft-lbs, Full Power Kit p/n 300008 above that, and Drill Pin Kit p/n 300002 above 3,500 rpm.
