Speedi-sleeves Volvo saildrive

[grafozz]

I have a chance visit next week to England and want
to buy 2x Speedi sleeve saildrive repair kits

trouble is the boats still in the harbour so I cannot measure the shaft size .

Can anyone tell me what the prop shaft size is on the 120 S saildrive unit please ?
so I can pick them up next week .
thanks ,

I think sailaboutvic did exactly the same job recently. Perhaps you could PM Vic?

Sorry, my 120S-E is in the water. But Keypart probably knows this, and have been very helpful in the past when emailed/phoned. As they sell the seals, they'll undoubtedly know the shaft diameter for them. Worth a try.

I'm writing from the phone so can't search easily but I'm sure that sailaboutvic did mention his saildrive shaft size as being 31.7mm before adding the speedi sleeve that made his shaft up to 31.9mm.. worth a search in this forum. That makes it the same as a post in another forum that suggests the 99125 size. 1.250"

Ah...vic didn't get the sleeves but had his shaft modified. ...he does state the size at this post though .. http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?456754-Volvo-saildrive/page2

True ... but that wasn't the end of the story as Vic then decided to do his own speedi-sleeves and did a lovely DIY job from the photos he showed me. Perhaps he didn't post them online.

The propshaft is 1.250" dia and the seal size is 2.000" x 1.250" x 0.375". I would recommend getting Viton seals since they come with stainless steel garter rings as standard.
I tend to use www.simplybearings.co.uk for all my bearings and seals, they also do spedi-sleeves. Service from them has always been next day for my orders.
