What is this? 2012 Ram 2500 rubber mounted bar......

Does anybody know what this is or the purpose of it? It is the rusty piece in the photo. It is mounted in rubber at either end and will twist back and forth quite easily. It seems heavy as well??? ...

A lot of people post this question but not a lot have the answer. From what I understand it is a harmonic vibration damper. See here. Not all Ram trucks have them and there are several different designs and locations depending on model, adding to the confusion.


LOL
Loved the one post though "Could they possibly be a sacrificial anode to help minimize rust on the rest of the truck?" That there was funny stuff :b
