Per my previous post, Cummins came today to lower both my pods and reseal all seals on my upper pods as well as the king pin plates. All looked great to him. He resealed them, re-hung them and also installed my newly ceramic-coated prop shafts with new seals. All is back together and the boat is ready to launch. Some photos of the day.
Inner shaft-coated
Outer shaft coated. (The top is just electrical tape to protect the threads in shipping)
Upper POD with King Pin Plate removed:
King Pin Plate (the side that is up faces downward when installed)
This is one of the pods in a custom made lift. He locks it into place and wheels it away from boat.
And here's everything all put back together. Note the green film on outside of pod. That's gear lube leaking out from the top, which is why I had them resealed.
