Super Jet Mid shaft

[vcolf]

housing seized on my kids superjet. The bearings must’ve got some moisture in them and seized up. took the mid shaft out, cleaned it up with some lapping compound. Decent size grooves, wondering if I should run it or also replace the mid shaft? All of them have markings where the where the seal lip is, but not sure is this is beyond the service life?

I would definitely recommend replacing that shaft. The bearing areas look worn and the grooves from the seal lips will most likely leak with a new seal. The shaft/seals have been letting water into the bearings for a while.
