I checked it out. No go. I ordered another midshaft. I'll have it next week. Try again.

That is pushing the motor further away from the mounts. It needs to come back towards the bulkhead. I'm ordering another midshaft

I traded it to jet manic. I sent both in and he rebuilt one anand gave me credit for the other. They both had the same marking on it. Like 63m . I wish I had it to try!!!!

Dang, looks nice. What did u end up using for the motor mounts? Not the inserts but the part you put them In. I have seen plenty of aftermarket skis use resin like that for the motor mounts. Only recently am I really seeing billet mounts and such.

When I bought my midshaft it had the longer coupler like the one in the picture. Both ebay listings claim they are from the same ski... Maybe I need the shorter version? Guess I'll order it up and see.

Threads are bottoming out, but the driveshaft is still 1/2" away from end of mid shaft. I may just have to machine that, and then the coupler as well. Seems pretty normal to me. As a side note I finally got the ss nuts I ordered off ebay for the steering... apparently they came from HongKong...

There is a post here on this site that says the gp800 May have a slightly longer midshaft, 5mm or so longer. Wondering if that's what I got.

I just dont want to grind on that!!!!

I so do not want ro do that to this bed plate. I tried to move the motor mounts but there isnt much give in them. Crap.

I sent that one and one I had to JM to have rebuilt. They were the same number on them. I believe he rebuilt the other one I sent in and gave me a core credit for the other. I dont have a gap, I just cant get ththe engine back far enough.

I have pressed the midshaft in as far as I can and am still 3-4mm away from being able to install any bolts into the motor mounts... wondering if I have the wrong midshaft. No markings on it of any kind, will have to measure and see. Is this how all of these builds go? Or just mine?

Nice long talk with wanderer1, good to hear from someone who has run the 927 and this pipe. He gave me a great starting point for tuning the pipe.

JM just confirmed I have the ability to press the midshaft in a little more. So out it will come!

2 questions on my wdk pipe... 1- should it have a way to put water in it????? 2- on the shot of the inside of the pipe, does that need to be welded? Jeff said "no", but I'd like a 2nd opiniin from someone who has nothing on the line.

So it's all back as far as it can go... Need about 1/4" more. Can I just press the midshaft in that bit I need?

Got my rebuilt midshaft back from JM.

Parts ordered, more waiting.

Thanks for the link and recommendation, just sent a message to JM for more parts

Got the pump dialed in. I spaced the pump shoe back 2 washers thickness and used 520p to glue it in. Silly question, being I run x2s and dont have steering cables... the rip came with a steering cable but no little connector at either end to attach to the nozzle or the steering plate. What do...

I have a JD version going in my WDK RIP right now. Lots of grinding and test fitting. I am not in love with how it fits. But I guess that is how they fit... I had to grind to get it to sit lower in the hull and really take a lot of meat off the ears to fit the intake cavity.
