Help!! 99 Shaft in 98 Jet Pump?

[Cruz427]

Hello all,

I bought a 99 GSX Ltd. a year ago just after the jet pump was rebuilt on it. I went to go do my first oil change on it this spring and only 1 of the cone bolts were remaining and the oil had leaked out. I decided to rebuild the pump with the 99' kit from OSD and replace the shaft. When I went to put the cone back on the screws from the kit were too large. I read somewhere that in 98 they used smaller screws for the cone. I am concerned that the pump on it was from a 98' and not the original. I used the kit and shaft for a 99'. Will this work or do I need to sort out replacing the shaft and thrust bearing to the 98' style.

Thanks in advance!

Check the part numbers in the parts diagram and see if they are the same.

Pretty sure that 98 impeller shaft is a one off. Don’t think it’ll work in a 99 pump. If you used a 99 shaft, it is probably a 99 pump

They are different.

They are different. View attachment 61867

That is the driveshaft not the impeller shaft.
