Picked her back up from Martinez today - cant believe the quality and attention to detail on the interior. He has my thumbs up for sure. We asked him to put his logo on it so all would know his work - even that looks sweet

Tori and I could not be happier with this phase of the rebuild

Looks great. Do you know if they wrap steering wheels?

It really all depends on how things measure out, but I don't see anything that can't be detailed out.

Does it turn freely without any tight spots? Remember that the packings will put a lot of drag on the shaft.

Do you have any pics of the inside of the bowl? As long as there are no chunks missing, I'm sure it is not as bad as you think.

Regards,

Joe

The impeller has cracks everywhere. The shaft has grooves in it. The bearings are no good. It's just sad news don't really have the money to do it. I am waiting for my tax money to show up so I can build my motor and build my pump.

Holy crap!!! You guys attacked that float hard! Soon much work has been done in relatively little time. And it's looking great, trailer included. Good job guys!

« **Reply #1722 on:** February 16, 2015, 12:05:16 PM »

Yes a lot of time and a lot hard work. I have to thank the guys for all the hard work they've been doing, after work staying up late, and working every weekend, and putting up with me. I do not take bad news very well.

I see the cracks no (wonderful feature zoom is). I will try to find a good used thrust bearing and impeller if you are interested. I know we don't have any good used shafts.

Where are the grooves? On the bushing end? Bowl bushings can be sourced from McMaster-Carr, I will get the part number ASAP.

I'm not great with names, but I think it's Tom Peterson who does great work out of your area. I hate to see you stall after all that work.

Like I stated on FB, that is an easy one. We have fixed much larger problems than that on a river bank. Depending on how much HP you are planning, this is about a three or four hour job with minimal materials. Most of which can be found in good shape used. I would not stress this as much as you are.

The housing looks to be OK, the impeller is toast and should not be used, the shaft is easily replaceable and or can be repaired/sleeved, everything else is maintenance parts.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. A worn out pump is a silly reason to stop you from benefiting from all the hard work you guys did.

And I agree with Joe. Really don't look to abnormal.
