[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1451875, member: 19880"] For sure - assuming it is not damaged/leaking and doesn't have too many miles on it. If the only issue is the shaft seal, that is relatively easy to handle but if you have to get into major disassembly and haven't messed with that before, I would look for a simpler fix by replacement of the entire unit with a good used part. Personally, I would tackle the shaft seal but if one of the other seals or o-rings might be the problem, I would replace the whole thing because of my lack of knowledge about servicing these. Especially given the cost and availability of used units. [/QUOTE]
