Convert Iwaki 20RLXT to 20RLT

sid700 · 05/03/2006, 02:25 PM

Hello. Can I convert my 20RLXT to 20RLT merely by buying a new impeller (http://www.marineandreef.com/shoppro...mpReplace.html)?

Are there other parts I need to get?

Thanks for any advice.

The Iwaki 20RLT run a 3/4 ' inlet and outlet. The 20RLXT run a 1' inlet and outlet. So you may have to change front casing and bearing as well. I would call Marine Depot to see what else is needed to make the conversion.
