Curious Semper, how much did it cost you and what were issues with your Kanzaki? I am looking at having my K2A overhauled or rebuilt.

Another Question For Semper

How long did it take from the time you sent it to them until you got it back?

Thanks.

Phoned Rick
Packed her up and away to their shop
Sounds like he knows his stuff

My strut was bent which caused the prop shaft to come out of alignment with the transmission. The coupler was forced into the rear of the transmission and broke into pieces. This caused damage to the rear seal which let all the oil leak out. The rebuild was $1500.00 which included a replacement rear shaft that was damaged. This would normally not be needed. Rick did the whole job in 2 days and shipped my transmission back via UPS. The transmission now works better than new. I have no financial interest in Rick's shop, but he did a great job and was a pleasure to deal with.
