No pump seal

@jo5hi3 set me straight. Pump is in.

Midshaft

Got the pole mounted yesterday and ran all the cables. Got the steering and controls good to go as well.

 

[Rowley286]

Set the motor in for mockup. No shims!

 

[Rowley286]

Motor is bolted in

So far the worst part of this build is getting the breather hose up into the pole

Take a heat gun and get it warm.That will help.But don't get it too hot

 

[Big Kahuna]

take a rubber mallet while it is warm and you can flatten them out some to fit better also (only the part that goes in the pole)

Lube and screw!

Took a break from cussing at my breather hose this afternoon and mounted my total loss.

Love the Spacecowboy TL plate. Speaking of where is my extra one @SpaceCowboy??

 

[Rowley286]

Pretty much just waiting on my blowsion tank, exhaust blocks and waterbox and it will be ready to ride other than running water and fuel lines.

I miss this ski with the TPE 1105 I had in it. Enjoy!

 

[Freakie]

Hey McDog

not to thread jack....
Your TPE is now happily ripping my arms off in my -4 Badass carbon SF for the past 6 months...tks a million...it was a great deal....incredible power.

I am sure the Circus with a PHP TL and the rest will be similar.

Rowley is going to be very happy.

No pump seal

Just curious as to what was the issue with the pump. At first I thought the driveshaft was bottoming out but the wear ring looked like it sat flush against the pump shoe, what was the fix if you don't mind sharing. Just something bugging my head haha. Ski looks bitchin all complete, i've always liked the looks of a SF but haven't had enough tray time on one. Good luck with build, looks as though you are in the final stages!

I guess the circus hull does not use a pump seal (all superfreaks maybe?) Anyways the wear ring actually slides into the groove in the pump shoe. I ran a bead of silicone around the shoe and wear ring and pushed it in. It fits nice and flush now. I'll post some pictures of it when I get home.

I can't wait to ride this thing. Hopefully this unseasonably warm weather sticks around and I can take it for a spin in March.

Interesting so the shoe is similar to the yamaha couches where it all slides together, I didn't know that on any standups. Yeah dude hope to see some video soon, freaks seem to be very flip able from the videos I have seen
