May be a stupid question but I was just wondering how does the damper stay on if there is no rib for the belt on it?

 

the dampener is bolted to the snout of the crankshaft.

 

The damper is bolted to the hub which is bolted to the snout of the crank.

 

actually what I meant was how does the belt stay on

The damper has groves in it, as does the belt, and there is a tensioner pulley that keeps the belt tight against it and all the other pulleys.

 

see like this one it doesnt look like it has the ribs for it...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

What do u guys think of the second one

 

The second one has a snout on the back of it, making it stick out farther to align with the belt. The first one, I don't know, maybe a pully mounts on the front of it.
