Looking to rebuild my new to me Merc 496HO SN# OWO 012282 RAW Water pumps.
Do I have order each seal and gasket separately from Merc or is there a "Kit" available somewhere?
Thanks Guys/Gals!

Typically, a sign the bearings are wiped also.
8M0140001 contains a shaft with bearings, 2 seals, tolerance ring, and retaining ring.
Or you could be tight azz like me, just order the 2 seals (they are available separately) and sourced some bearings for pennies on the dollar and pressed them on my old shaft.
