Hey fellas...
I got an odd issue here, and an seeing if anyone can shed some light on this. I have looked online and am finding a LOT of contradictory info.
I am doing a blower install on my car and I am trying to use my stock 4.6L 2V balancer to bolt the Metco lower pulley hub to and the bolt holes are not aligning. I referenced the P/N from the MM and Aviator balancer and they match. However, based on any pics I can find, the balancer from an MM/aviator and a Crown Vic LOOK identical in the placement of the three bolt holes. Has ANYONE had the issue of their Metco hub not aligning to the bolt holes on their balancer?
Metco confirmed I have the right hub for an MM/Cobra/Lightning balancer. I am apprehensive to get a used MM/Aviator balancer if the bolt holes are in the same spots. I found a 03/04 Cobra balancer online for a decent price, and that balancer looks like the holes are spaced out farther, and it will work.
Can someone confirm or debunk this? (MM/Aviator bolt holes ARE or ARE NOT farther out then the CV balancer?) all the pics I am finding suggest they are in the same spots, however I have never read of an MM owner having issues installing a Metco lower hub on their stock balancer....
