Out of country and back into the country have been gone 2 weeksPerfect weekend weather for the boat...
They should be able to send you pics of the impeller. Surprised they'd say it was unrecoverable....they can usually be reconditioned.So i called, they said that the impeller and pump housing is locked up, and both need to be replaced...
Is this accurate statement ?
Also, how much difference is it going to make with the impeller being changed out compared to the right one ?
How much should something like this cost ? I want to make sure I am not getting ripped off
Thanks yall
Tracking....They should be able to send you pics of the impeller. Surprised they'd say it was unrecoverable....they can usually be reconditioned.
I would choose and order aftermarket housings and factory impellers and install them myself. You can swap them out in a day.Tracking....
I was debating on doing that @Bruce I am not against doing both, but I want to use it for the summer "sigh"
I figured you would say that LOL.....I would choose and order aftermarket housings and factory impellers and install them myself. You can swap them out in a day.
I talked to SBT about their Adonis impellers today and see two issues. The Adonis impellers only come in one pitch where our factory impellers have a different pitch for each side and the factory impeller prices have dropped to $70 less per side than the SBT parts.I just got a quote update... to do both motors pull and install from sbt impellers and housing its gonna be $1200 which includes labor and material
They plan on using SBT imepeller and pump housing...
It is just a matter of pulling the two pumps at around 15 minutes each, taking them to a jet ski shop to swap the impellers and housings then 15 minutes per side to reassemble. The labor for swamping the impellers should not be more than a few hundred. Swapping pump housings might take 30 seconds.I figured you would say that LOL.....
Damnit @Bruce... Problem is I am on travel for the next 3.5 weeks :|
While I dont disagree with you, The problem is I am going to be on travel starting Monday for 3 weeks... I just dont have the time honestly and its very frustrating as you can imagine...It is just a matter of pulling the two pumps at around 15 minutes each, taking them to a jet ski shop to swap the impellers and housings then 15 minutes per side to reassemble.

I talked to SBT today. They do not have impellers in the standard pitch. They have one of the impellers but do not manufacture the other.I do know the impellers they were going to replace it with were the stock impeller pitch, and the sbt jet pump housing.
Hmm..... so wtf... LOLI talked to SBT today. They do not have impellers in the standard pitch. They have one of the impellers but do not manufacture the other.
It would be cheaper to fly you in and get you to help me with it then have them do itI talked to SBT today. They do not have impellers in the standard pitch. They have one of the impellers but do not manufacture the other.
