Good To Know

Q: How often should a carbon ring kit be replaced? A: Most owners replace the carbon ring kit during routine pump or driveshaft service, or sooner if water is found entering around the driveshaft seal.

Q: Is seal installation difficult? A: The carbon ring kit installs at the driveshaft pass-through point and is commonly handled during pump removal, so basic mechanical experience helps.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
