A friend installed a mechanical shaft seal and therefore gave me their packing repair kit and spares. Unfortunately my R29 takes 1/4” square packing and his kit is for 5/16” square packing. While I can use some things, like stuffing box wrenches, I have three 2ft sections and one 3 ft piece of 100% GFO packing. This is a lot of packing as I think it takes about 1 foot to pack a box with three rings. I also have two 11 inch long, flexible 5/16” corkscrew packing removal tools. I am happy to give this stuff to anyone who can use it. If interested send me a PM. I am in Gig Harbor and it can be picked up there. I could plan to bring to a Ranger cruise or Rendezvous but maybe we won’t be having one soon 😳
