Abstract
A damper assembly staking system that provides for staking damper weights onto a messenger is disclosed. The damper assembly includes damper weights having a forked side which accepts a messenger. A hole is drilled in the forked side of the damper weight to receive the messenger. A staking hole is then drilled into the bottom of the damper weights. The staking hole extends just past the side of the messenger hole and is sized to receive a staking ball. Staking of the damper weight is accomplished by pressing the staking ball into the staking hole via a hardened dowel pin to secure the messenger within the damper weights.
