This is a common question. Rebuild all or just swap some parts.
One of the reasons we recommend you change all of the parts is that the bearings that are used for the shaft to spin on can break apart and cause serious engine damage. Believe it or not the factory bearings spin at a much higher rate than what they are rated for, so you take a chance by rebuilding and not using new bearings. Your supercharger spins at 45000 rpms these bearings will cause serious damage if they come apart at that speed. Sea-Doo now, for 08 says that you must rebuild your supercharger every 100 hrs of use to ensure that there will not be any failures. If your 08 ski is under w/a and you continue riding past the 100 hour mark, (this is counted by your on board computer) as you pass 5 hrs past this, Sea-Doo will have the right to void your w/a. Don’t take any costly chances and just consider that part of the 100 hr service should include supercharger rebuilding. SBT realizes that bringing your ski to the dealership for this repair is costly so we have come up with an inexpensive way for the customer to learn how to properly rebuild their own components. We offer the rebuild kit/ the tools and the online info to do it you’re self. If that is not enough info then we also can talk you through it by way of Free Tech support.
