i ripped out 2 on one side of my 94 sx hull, do you still have them? i had 1 and had to get 1. i went to sears hardware and bought a long coupler nut, was american and a lil bigger bolt hole, i think, but it worked. any way flipped the ske over, sanded and scuffed the holes. made grooves in the slug and new coupler nut one the bench grinder. cleaned everything, and used a 2 part epoxy made by Fuser. cant remember what type it was, one tube was brown, nad one was white. it is made for SMC repair. got it at a body shop supply place. worked like a champ!!!!!!! 330-506-0183. call me tomorrow if you have questions....

They are on his website www.watcon.com. Now $25. I'm 99% sure this is a generic repair kit that you can use on pretty much any 'ski. As it's that 1% that will bite you I'd suggest you double-check with John before you buy.

Thanks for the inquire.....
Yes, I have insert kits here still. Although the price has gone up in the last 10 years. (Sorry)

No prob, I've never used these before, will the bolt install flush with rideplate?

Be sure to mount insert flush with hull. You will re-use your stock plate mount hardware (bolts). The one that comes with the kit is used as a tool for installing them.
