Damper drive plates, also known as gear noise reduction plates, are an out-of-sight, little known and sometimes misunderstood integral part of the drive train that could ruin your day if not maintained correctly. Located in the bell housing between the engine and transmission, the gear noise reduction plate is usually bolted on the transmission.
