When you turn it, the dampener ring moves in and out from the pulley about an eighth of an inch. Is this normal?

When you hold it in your hands, as you turn it, the dampener ring moves in and out from the pulley about an eighth of an inch. It looks like the ring is bent in towards the pulley. The rubber bulges slightly at that spot. I just wanted to know if this is normal before I go through the bother of installing it.

Getting a DMD is one of my summer projects, so I'm interested in what you find out. Beer is my Gatorade. Hooray Beer. '98 "Sport" Pacific Green '98 E0 SVT Silver Frost Pictures
