bad balancer?!

i had a crazy vibration at idle and part throttle cruise, everything is tight so i pulled the belt off to see if something was hanging up and its ok.
replaced the balancer last night, my friend said the balancer might be dicked because his tow truck shook like a bitch when the balancer was bent or went bad somehow lol

this truck, well the truck this motor came out of, the brake lines blew out and it ran into a tree, so it could have been tweaked a little.

i swapped on another balancer i had, and this one came off so easy, something had to be wrong, i thought my puller was fucked up it came off so easy.

anyway i put the new balancer on and its much happier, also it was nice to dump the coolant system as the heater core made my entire coolant system brown and muddy already hahaha
