The little plastic clamp/bushing that holds the shaft to the bulkhead broke on mine a couplte of years ago. We managed to replace it by taking the bolds off of the motor mounts and tilting the motor a bit. We needed a coulpe of socket extensions and a socket wobler or two though. it wasn't the easiest fix!
