I slid my shafts back to add the PSS shaft seals, do i need to replace my original solid couplings, or should i reuse them. Also the orginial set screws were drilled,i have not been able to find any, have them drilled or go with out safty wire??
thanks

Reusing the propeller shaft coupling is perfectly acceptable.........as long as they still fit properly.

The coupling should have a "Bump Fit" on the shaft.

I have seen many of the coupling without safety wire.....and many that did have the safety wire.....and the wire not installed properly.

Its not a big deal to drill them yourself with vise and a hand drill....or even Vise Grips and a hand drill......I would say do it.

I'm also using the PSS shaft seals on DeNada.....really looking forward to a dry bildge.

I thought so, just needed to double check. I have a drill press, i will just drill them at the shop. The PSS are very nice, if i can ever get the boat running again it will be nice to have a dry bildge as you said
Thanks Harry

I am still using mine. As long as they fit well and are still true go for it. I did away with the lock wire on mine. PSS are great!
