Home engineered Pump Alignment Band
Hey guys, I made my own pump alignment band for the 2004R for cheap and I thought I would share. It is ridiculously easy to make. It consists of 2 hose clamps bought at Home Depot. They are both Tridon brand.
#96 6inch 114mm-165mm
#32 1-9/16" - 2-1/2" (39.7mm-63.5mm)

Total cost was less than $4 CAD. This is significantly less than the cost of a real alignment band, and the function is identical.

The clamps fit perfectly when joined end to end and provide a perfect alignment. Note that in the pic the band is higher on the pump than it would be when actually aligning the halves to make it easier to see.

What? I'm not the only genius on these boards?

hehe I thought the pics might inspire others to save a bit of cash and make their own too.
