I appreciate your time. We have the 4.2L We had them order another, as I believe this was misboxed.

Just to jump in here because I saw this post and just had the same thing happen to me. Different balancer but the part they looked up said it fit the vehicle but it was wrong. I had to look up the OEM number and they could cross reference it, which is what I did here. See attached.
Also, I attached some pictures of what appears to be the OEM number. This is much different then the Dorman as it appear the Dorman needs the pulley attached but the OEM is one molded piece. Which in my mind would be much better for a balancer.
Just thought I would weigh in. Thanks

Hello again.
Yes, you were correct with the Dorman part number 594-220. I've attached the picture below.Did the box look to be already opened? Sometimes people who buy the wrong parts will re-box and take back for a return.People do the same thing with tools like use once repackage and return.Since you have reordered a new one let us know what happens.Do you need removal and installation instructions? Hope this helps and thanks again for using 2CarPros.

We picked up the new balancer and it was the correct size. Thanks everyone.

Great to hear. The way the parts are these days it's getting to be interesting. Do I get the correct part? Does it actually work, and if it works, does it work like the factory part? I'm getting to the point that if I were to buy a new vehicle and liked it I would probably buy two more as soon as possible. One to drive, one to store until I needed to repair parts on the driven one and one that would be stripped for parts!
