Hey guys Ive got a problem with my newly acquired 35 vanguard hyperdrive. The issue is the previous owner failed to maintain the motor after saltwater use so in effect I now have a lower shaft that is in 2 Pieces and as I got it taken apart I realized it has a severe need for all new bearing seals and collars as well as the taper lock for the lower pulley is cracked on the oppposing side of the split. So my question is where do I get the parts or info on where to get parts and can I buy everything I need as a kit? Basically I need everything but a pulley, prop , and retaining nut. I've called mb twice and left a voicemail with no returned calls yet. BTW it is an older direct drive belt. Unsure of yr though any way to identify year? Thanks in advance for any and all help

Call mudbuddy or the boatdr

Probably your best bet.

Shaft can be made at local machine shop, seals and bearings can be had at local auto parts store gear insert can be ordered from Motion Industries, Have rebuilt several of the old style threaded shaft 48 and 32" legs. Posted some of the bearing and seal Nos. on MudBuddy Forum if they havn't banned my post.
