I keep blowing my drive u-joints (see blog for pics) and believe my pump needs a rebuild.

Jet Pumps / Re: U-joint Failure
« on: October 26, 2012, 04:24:44 PM »
To my knowledge, everything is stock and original mounts. I don't believe the newport rebuilder even pulled the motor as he did a top-end rebuild. I'm ready for a professional help /alignment as I have pulled it twice now and fear I'm not getting the alignment right....
Any ideas in my area.......SO OC or No San Diego???

OK, I will get some pictures as suggested......the first re-install was done by rebuilder; Newport Marine....the second and third I did but tried to keep matching pieces. U-joints bought a Dana Marine, but don't recall make......will check it out. Now that I'm a 'desk jockey', looking for someone willing to investigate and repair.

OK, but right now it's still got the blown u-joint and it's off center.......what's confusing me is that it is the same engine, mounts, pump, and angle that it ran since 80'.......only now blows out the u-joint. Any chance the pump could be causing this with too much play in the front seal??? It was making a moderate "Humm" noise from the bearing..........

Jet Pumps / U-joint Failure

I have a 79' Miller mini cruiser and recently had my 454 rebuilt.....since then, I have blown out my u-joints 3 times. Not sure what is causing this but after last set of u-joints, they blew again within 15 minutes at about 2,500 rpm......Ideas?
