The only thing I didn't care for is how far it draws on the crank.....I can get a sheet of paper between it and my timing cover bolts and that's about it Reply Quote

Dixie	Got two of them on 2 IH DT 466 ENGINES. Work just fine. For IH engine you have to use truck oil pump, 1.250 rotor for seal to match up. Reply Quote

Mr. Big	Be careful. The "press on" hubs will gall (as in weld) to the crank. You may need a muffler cutter and cuss words to get them off. Use a taper lock hub to eliminate future trouble if over stock RPM. Been there, done that. Not fun. Reply Quote

We had one of the press on hubs gall to the crankshaft and then we made a tapor lock hub for it. This also galled to the crank. Then we got a larger fluid balancer and no more problems. I feel that the ati is just too small for diesel engine of this size. Reply Quote

I've used them on several IH 466 at both limited and open rpm without any trouble that I'm aware of. I have seen burrs on end of crank cause even stock balancers to gald on their way on and cause major problems with removal. From my own experience i've found that most of these galling and welding issues on either end of the crank are normally due to something in the rotating assembly either out of balance, bent or loose. Just my 2.

I just looked up the ATI website and now there are 3 different weight balancers for the john deere tractors. I believe a while back there was only 1 size. The ones for the International tractors are almost 10 1/2" in dia. The small ones for the John Deeres which I believe is what we had is only about 7" in dia.
