  1. I have a 21 year old hot tub that I am fixing up. I have not used it in the past two years and it ran without problems when I drained and shut it down. It has two pumps that I have pulled out. There was some evidence of leakage around the impeller seals. I have taken the wet ends off of both and managed to break off the impeller on one of them as it had rusted onto the shaft of the motor. I have discovered that getting parts for these wet packs are impossible. I believe that they are older Waterways from all of the parts diagrams. I would like to change out the wet ends for new ones and use the motors I have. The problem is that the wet ends I have are 2" inflow/outflow and have a center discharge (my union connectors are 2"). Any of the compatible wet ends (center discharge) for the motors are 1-1/2". I don't think that a 2" side discharge will fit into the space for the two pumps and spa controller box. Would there be any issues in using the 1-1/2" wet packs and then using a 1-1/2 inch female buttress (attached onto the wet pack) to a 2" male buttress to allow connection to a 2" pump union? ( 1
