I´m considering putting back the OEM shaft seal in my boat, as the one I have now is noisy IMO.
Some pictures of the codition of the seal, It only need new packing...only thing I see the output hole is little egged, due to shaft sitting low that caused wear. Will that be a problem?

Seb,
You should be ok. I've seen lots worse and they still hold the packing in. |

That's the idea but if you go back say about pre 80, they never had the holes for the wire. I've never seen one come loose!!
See if you can find a piece of .030 or .035 MIG stainless welding wire. That's what I use but I always have a spool of it in the shop too! |

just for originaly purpose I would add it..lol
I also lack the shaft safety collar..but that one is little more complicated to find here... I remember It used to be there when I bought the boat 10 years ago..but might got lost in the multiple times the shaft was out... |
