I didn't replace the rubber doughnut, but wish I did have as it is starting to show signs of wear... Will be getting this done shortly

Bellato Legacy Donating Member 2,713 Member For: 15y 11m 5d Posted 22/10/12 11:45 PM Posted 22/10/12 11:45 PM $800 seems pretty good considering a stock one is on ebay for $450. Maybe if its really a hassle for some guys it could be worth buying this one on ebay and getting it sent to the shop to make the new one then sell it again? Not sure what the demand is like for stock tailshafts
