Can an XB oil pump be used in a tuber? | ||

Yes... you just need to swap the oil line fittings from the tuber pump to the XB pump. i did the same thing on my 1999 x1 when the pump fragged... you may also want to change out the drive gear to the brass one. | ||

Oil lines are no biggie. I picked up an XB oil cooler as well so I'm gonna do it all in one fell swoop. I'll inspect the drive gear but hopefully I don't need to replace it. I don't have the tools for that. I picked up the XB pump, lines, oil cooler, and scoop for $100 shipped, so I'm pretty stoked that it'll fit  . (Message edited by Phelan on February 20, 2014) | ||

whats the part number on the xb pump you got? if its 26487-98 is the same as the tuber pump.... if its -------------------------------------------- The last up-grade on the XB oil pump was to -02B, the "B" meaning the last up-grade ... If it does not have the "-B"(PN 26357-02B) the internals are the same as the -98(BUELL) or -91A(SPORTSTER) with XB oil line fittings . | ||

replace the gear!! what tools are you missing? do you have the tools to get the primary assembly off? I think its a 28 and a 30 or 32 mm socket, a torque wrench big enough to hit the right specs, a primary locking bar, and a pinion shaft locking plate. you can get the two locking tools from Al at American Sport Bike, they should be standards in your tool box...... what tools are you missing? | ||

I have been putting off changing my oil pump drive gear for a couple years but finally got around to in last week. Sucks cause i spent $91 on the new gear, and $50 on the pinion locking tool but my original gear looked like brand new when removed. But better safe then sorry and fairly cheap insurance. |
