Sta-Rite C176-47P1 Tank Body
Sta-Rite lists the C176-47P1 as the tank body in the Dyna-Glas/Dyna-Max Series in-ground pool and spa pumps. Replacing it is a full teardown job, so it is worth confirming the internal wear parts are also in good shape before closing the pump back up.
Because the tank body sets the alignment for the impeller and seal, a warped or cracked one can cause premature wear on both even if they are otherwise in good condition. Check the mounting bosses and port threads on the old part for damage in addition to obvious cracks before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I prevent this from cracking again?
Drain the pump before a hard freeze, or keep it in a heated space, and make sure the pump is not run dry, which stresses the housing along with the internal parts.
Q: What usually causes a tank body to need replacing?
A hard freeze while the pump was full of water is the most common cause, followed by age-related stress cracking and impact damage. A leak at the body itself, rather than at a fitting, is the usual symptom.
Q: Do I need to replace the seal and impeller when I replace this?
Not necessarily, but since the pump has to come fully apart to swap the tank body, it is a good opportunity to inspect both and replace them if they show wear.
Q: Will this fit a different horsepower pump in the same series?
Not always. Sta-Rite Dyna-Glas/Dyna-Max Series in-ground pool and spa pumps use different tank body castings across their horsepower range even when they look similar, so match the exact part number.
