Bill,
Some of our members have had success with rebuilding themselves and others haven't. There are some idiosyncrasies of a rebuild that are not in the manual like pump tolerances. Here's a comment from the FAQ thread.

Personally, I'd ship the trans up to Fantastic Finish Marine. They aren't as simple as just throwing a clutch pack and seal kit in for a rebuild.

One of our top members here Eric used to own FFM. He's gone onto other things and has sold FFM to his right hand man Vince. Eric taught Vince everything he knows about marine trans's. Eric has rebuilt/fixed them when other "pros" have failed. I remember one thread where the "pro" tried twice!!!

thanks Peter.....I spoke to Vince today. He was very patient and explained the process. i'm impressed. I'm checking with local boat mechanics to see if anyone is willing to remove and install the tranny. If not, I may be hauling it to Medina OH. thanks again!
