This video was to show a practical way to replace the impeller. Grinding is not practical, not to mention, breaking it free is what causes people the most trouble. It’s not about a high spot.
It’s a 2010 SX240 HO. Trust me, it wasn’t easy. I tried everything before this video. They hadn’t been changed before. I thought I was going to have to take it to the shop. The breaker bar and support (basically a supersized vice) made all the difference in the world.
@@donaldcampbell9926 I was referring to the housings coming out of the boat. I could not get my impeller off the shaft on my 2017 FX HO either. Had to pay the shop $150 to unmount and remount. Not looking forward to my 2007 VX110. :)
@@factionfxI had problems with one side more than the other. I tapped on it with a rubber mallet, but what really worked was I took a ratchet strap and put the hooks in each side opposite of the other. From there, you could either ratchet it off providing you have it attached to something on the other end (it works like a winch), or you could give it a few tugs from there on the other end of the strap and see it that works. Good luck!
What ramp is this?
It’s the Black Widow Aluminum Heavy-Duty Folding Arched 3-Piece Motorcycle Ramp from discount ramps.com
I would suggest you at least tether that ramp to the hitch.
Thank you for the suggestion, but the ramp is tethered to the hitch 🤔.
2010 242 300hrs: How can I tell if my impellers need replacing?
Brian, I just did a visual inspection on mine. I got some rocks stuck in there, and one of them started looking like a beat up propeller.
Whats the bed size on the ram?
I have a short bed. Otherwise, I probably could have the tailgate up.
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing brother, I have a 2011 AR-240 so yeah, I'll be dealing with this soon. Great content and God bless y'all!
Why not grind the high spot?

Hi, what year and model is your boat? Can't believe those pieces came apart so easily...wonder if they had been taken apart before and not resealed?

Just be careful with those turns. Hate to see you bang up your bed gate.
Thanks. Already tested. The hitch is extended and I can make sharp turns with no problem.
What kind of boat looks sick!
Glad to see the ramp didn’t slip off the back. Must have a lock on it to prevent that from happening NICE 👍🏻👍🏻👊🏻
Totally agree with the support idea.
I want to see him back it off !!!
I would add support on those ramps eventually it could give out.
