There went my impeller...any installation tips?

All the sudden I hear the bottom of the boat scrape the bottom of the lake as it dropped from 4ft to 1ft and a rock was sucked up and damaged the impeller. Just ordered new impeller and wear ring ...$368 later... I want to try and install it myself... ANY TIPS or instructions??

Read the wear ring thread under "How To". It has all you should need.

Ok.. took off the pump and now I need a impeller removal tool that fits, right... I see I also need a 12mm allen after I remove the cone on the other side... I found the issue ... I still had a nice size rock still lodged in and the blades are all banged up and some good scaring of the wear ring too. I stopped in and talked to a Sea Doo tech and he said to bring it in now to use his tool! Wow... as long as they don't charge me (ha ha) that would be cool!
