I've got a danner supreme 9.5 that has a worn internal bushing.Does anyone know if it is possible to replace or have any ideas on how to repair it? I've thought about filling the hole/worn part with resin and drilling a new placement hole, any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks! Chris

There are replacement impellers and volutes available for Mags, but if the inside housing is worn, you need a new pump.
I hadn't noticed a wobble in one of mine, and it wore a figure 8 inside, and the pump was un-repairable.
I realize its a bit hard to see in the photo, but here it is anyway,
below is a volute I was able to replace after a snail got caught
and an impeller worn out when I tried play sand, which my cichlids easily stirred up.

Yeah my inside bushing is worn like the first pic. There is nothing I can do aside from buying a new pump? I bought a new impellar and volute cover and am currently running the said pump, I just know its a matter of time that it will ruin the new parts.
I'd buy a new pump (if possible) in the meantime, and then keep the impeller and volute as spares before they get trashed.
