...the new one will NOT slip right on...you have to put it on to the best of your ability...and then start hitting it with a soft hammer around the edges until it goes down a little bit. then, put the main bolt in, tighten to where it's tight, and then pound some more. the bolt's tension will help pull the balancer on, because pounding alone will take forever and hurt your arm. But, don't try to skip the pounding and just use the bolt, because there aren't enough threads on that bolt to pull the balancer in by itself until it's in some more.

Put a small dab of silicone in the key way of the balancer (oil can leak past key way) start the balancer then use a big dead-blow hammer or sledge hammer with an aluminum block(wood block)
Then pound away near the center. Install bolt/washer and torque it.
