I have an jacuzzi yj pump. I am wondering if it is possible to cut off the bowl and weld on a custom flange to accept an berkeley nozzle and place diverter??? I have a good welder available if this is possible.. Thanks eek!

you can get an energizer adapter then add the berkeley pump parts shaft,bowl,seals,bearing,impeller if you have the golden eagle suction housing.

Oops, sorry I thought you had a WJ. The YJ is a different style of pump. It works on FLOW, the WJ works on PRESSURE. If you restrict the flow it will work like shit.
