    Its not the age that concerns me, its the wobble. Its not as noticeable in the video, but it has a clear wobble going on.

    Pulling the balancer off is one of the easier tasks you can do yourself for piece of mind. Pull it off and check the thing out and look for anything obvious.

    I think I am gonna take it off and check it out. It looks to be a pain in the ### to get out on the ISL, no room. But, I just dont think the wobble is within reason. Thanks!
