Perfect timing. I am actually purchasing a PSS this weekend. My boat was repowered from an Atomic A4 to a Yanmar, and they had to rework the engine beds to make it work. As a result, it was impossible to adjust the stuffing box.
Quick question. I did not remove my current stuffing box as of yet. For a 1 1/8th inch shaft, I think there are 4 choices for the stern tube hose diameter. 2 1/4 is the largest. I put a micrometer on the base of the stern tube that was exposed and its reading 2.40. .40 is slightly bigger then a quarter and smaller then a 1/2 .I'm hoping the base of the stern tube may be a little thicker because of the way the fiberglass was layered up.
For those of you that have purchase this, do you remember the size of the stern tube? I'm going with the 2 1/4 as of now. Thanks!
