Harmonic Balancer Failure

Can't believe this happened, but my harmonic balancer just slipped on me, thing is finger loose on the pulley.

First - Does anyone know if the fox and 94/95 balancers are the same?

Second does anyone have one that they don't need (if you have upgraded)?

I need to get this back and running ASAP as it is my DD

Matt got me one from the '89 to get by for now.

Jason - I would like to get a newer one so I don't run into the same problem, I'll PM you on that one you mentiond.

An aftermarket balancer (or that FRPP unit) is a good upgrade to any of the 5.0L cars. And they can be had cheap.

This outfit has some great deals: http://www.catpep.com/
I have had their chrome 50-oz. SFI fluid-balancer for 4-years.

Back up and running, hopefully this one last until I can get the one from Jason.

The rubber gasket on the 95 one wasn't even cracked or dried out???
