Seeking Recent Reviews of SD 50 Upgrade Kit

I have yanmar SD 50's with the cone slipping problems. I have read about the Upgrade Kit available through a member here - Panache. I would love to get a permanent fix for the slipping problem, has anyone installed their thrust bearings and found the problem solved? How many hours since installation have you been operating slippage free?

Thank you. Rob

I also have yanmar sd 40 with cone slipping problems and would like to do the upgrade but would first be interested in hearing how long it worked in the real world. Thanks

This upgrade really works. Do a "search" and you will see there are many satisfied sailors who have used their upgrade. Contact them directly and they will advise.
