The Jabsco 1983-0010 is a genuine Jabsco stainless steel replacement shaft for Jabsco flexible impeller pumps. The shaft carries the impeller through the pump body and transmits power from the motor, engine pulley or drive coupling, so it has to run true and resist corrosion to keep the seal and bearings healthy.
A shaft that is grooved at the seal face, bent, or worn at the impeller drive will chew through seals and impellers no matter how often they are replaced. Installing a new genuine shaft during a rebuild restores a smooth sealing surface and a proper fit for the impeller, bearings and seal, and it is the right time to replace those wear parts as well.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How can I tell if my pump shaft is worn out?
Look for a groove where the seal rides, pitting, a bent shaft, or a loose fit at the impeller drive. Any of these can cause leaks and early impeller failure.
Q: Should I replace the seal and bearings with the shaft?
Yes. Fitting new seals and bearings with a new shaft gives the rebuild its best chance of lasting, since old parts can damage the new shaft quickly.
Q: Is there another material option for this shaft?
Yes. Jabsco also offers part 1983-0020, a Hastelloy alloy version for more aggressive liquids.
Q: Can I install the shaft myself?
Most owners with basic mechanical skills can, following the pump service manual. Press-fit bearings may require a small arbor press.
