MP60 dry side noise

HI, I have an MP60 2012 build date and the dry side noise is real bad even with the QD up grade . Has any one replaced the bearings ? I really can not by a new dry side . Thanks , Pete

There is no information for the MP60 bearings, but you could be a pioneer

With the bearings it is best to open the unit and get the bearing ID from the side of the bearing.

If there is no ID on the bearing then you need to measure the ID, OD and the thickness.

Also only use a good brand of bearing such as *** SKF etc...

And whatever you do, don't damage the magnet as you can't get replacements.

I just picked it up used the person I bought it from said it was quiet , he is working with me . I sent it in to the company with hopes they will help me. If not I will be the pioneer . Is this common on a pump like this thats less than four years old ? I only had Tunze before trying one of these . Funny I have another same age and did a QD upgrade and it's awesome
