I somehow lost the hub, socket or carrier (not sure of the name) that the ceramic shaft fits into in the front removable cover. Now the shaft wobbles around and makes a lot of noise. If you happen to have a dead one laying around... ??

Nevermind, I bought a new one and the front shaft holder is soft plastic and grips the impeller shaft and does not allow it spin. So I filled the front cup with silicone carefully lined everything back up and let it cure.... Good as new!!!

same happened to my pump. not sure how that front bushing got lost. I'm guessing it fell down to the sand somewhere.
