Default Harmonic balancer bad?

Checking my buddies 2005 Vette, I also think his balancer is bad.. way too much wobble it looks like. Is that a common problem with the early C6? It has 31,000 miles on it.

Thanks again

Most of them wobble a little. Mine has been doing it eleven years. There are a few video's on the forum. Do a search and see what is normal and what is not.

In my opinion they should not wobble, but I wouldn't replace it unless it is squealing or unless you put an ATI on it...replacing it with a GM balancer will wobble the same
