Looking for cheap Mag 3, 5, 7 working or not

[itZme]

My skimmer pump recently died and it was a Mag5 I bought a new impeller and when I took it apart I found that housing had broken where the shaft is supported. If anyone has a dead Mag pump I have a new impeller and would love to buy the rest for my skimmer. They say you can use the impeller in a Mag3, 5, or 7 so I would like to try for myself. I did find the housing for a little over $5 at Fosters and Smith but they wanted over $8 for shipping on it

Please let me know and I will try to make arrangements ASAP.

Thanks,
-- Kevin

Thanks for looking! I was hoping to turn someone else's trash into my treasure. I know what it's like to have something that would help someone out in a pinch and it was going to just lay there in a pile till it was needed. It is nice to be able to take 2 broken items and make one that works instead of throwing them both in another landfill. It is nice to have a community of like-minded people here that you can rely on to help out in a pinch.
