Can, or should, you run a 4.0 without a harmonic balancer. Im working on a buddy's 88 XJ to fix a rear main and a front main seal. While we had it apart we noticed the timing chain was worn and needed replacement. We also replaced the oil pump and water pump ( the harmonic balancer is weak and needs replaced but it had to be ordered. He wants to start the Jeep to make sure the timing is correct but the balancer is not in yet and it wont be till next week. I say we should wait but he really wants to make sure everything is correct and when the balancer comes in all we have to do is throw it on and we are done. What do Y'ALL think?
