Where did you get the kits?

Do they ever reply to email inquires or answer the phone? Been trying to reach them for a few weeks to get pricing info on the kits.

Anyone have a supplier on just the bearings for the pump shaft? I can find dozens of suppliers of the assembly (shaft and bearings), but I only need the bearings as mine is developing a slight squeak.

I first tried the R&R kit couple years ago and ended up replacing the pump. Before going down this path again, with the exception of trying the Hardin marine pumps I tried Aftermarket Marine after talking with Buddy there. They have a kit very similar to the Hardin one that uses a impeller .070" smaller than stock to compensate for the .070" SS plate in the end of the motor. The R&R one, used the stock impeller and a bunch more shims to compensate. Aftermarket also has all the bearings, seals and shafts to completely rebuild the pump to new. for information: http://www.amarket.com/impemerc.htm

The quality/fit are very good and I just ordered another kit as back up for the other motor.
