As good as any other, there's nothing special about a 4.0 balancer. Two metal rings with a slab of rubber between them. Pretty hard to screw up.

Alright. Good. Then I feel better. I've bought a fair amount of junk parts because they were cheap.

I got mine from NAPA for around the same price. Used the Autozone tool loaner for a puller. It wasn't hard at all.
