Hi, might be worth checking the wiring inside the tailgate. Mine was doing similar and I found 3 of the 5 (I think) wires that are bundled together inside were shorting. If you take the trim off and look towards the bottom left hand side you should see the wires coming into the tailgate. Its the...

Thanks guys, looks like mine has the same clearance. I did try a pry bar and block of wood but the balancer seems solid. I have a problem with alternator belt squeal. I have fitted new belts and adjusted them as per normal but it is still there under acceleration. Don't want to go too tight...
