I wanted to know what's the part called in this picture:



It seems to be some kind of weight.

Also, what is its purpose?

Thanks for any info.

 

I believe this part is used for vibration/noise dampning. I had one on my SRA but was removed to install the torque-arm.

Thanks jazzer

 

Yup. Jazzer is 100% correct...

 

Is your IRS out?? ..if you change the gears, you can remove it!

 

Jazzer is always right lol.

 

IRS is still on. When I broke my differential cover, I reinstalled it and it made it kind of tough to get the job done.

I heard it's really not needed. I went over a tire tread of a semi and it broke it right off.
