Anyone know the size and where I can buy a new Jet shoe/intake replacement for 2001 Johnson 60-40 jet?
I broke the one corner off and the grates are really bent up as well. I'd like to get a new one... shoe/grates/anode everything.

Thanks!

EASY; contact outboardjets.com. I would try to phone them, if you can't get ahold of someone then send them an email. They make ALL the pumps for every make of outboard and should have everything you need. There is another option, RockProof boats.com makes a composite intake that is supposed to take hits better than a stock foot. It might be a better choice in the long run, I didn't have the option of getting one since they don't offer it in the medium size.
I just received a spare intake/foot for a 40/30 Yamaha from outboardjets.com, and was very happy with their customer service.
I would also look at getting the foot that you have repaired, depending on how much damage, they can be welded. The foot that was on mine was busted up pretty good on the leading edge, I took it to a guy that can weld aluminum, got the necessary repair done, and formed/ground it back to shape using a flapper disc on a 4 1/2" grinder.
The welder charged $30, the disc $10, and a piece of aluminum bar stock that I needed for the repair cost $7.70, total cost--$47.70, heck of a lot cheaper than a new intake and that's the one that's back on the motor.
The grates can be easily straightened also, just need to pound out the two 1/4" shafts that hold them in place. I used a screwdriver with a 1/4" shaft, cut the tip off, and then used it to start the pins, then went to a longer 1/4" rod to drive them all the way out.

+2 Contact outboardjets.com They are very easy to deal with and will ship it right to you. I would also order a spare shear key, locking tab washer, a couple plastic sleeves, and spare nuts for the shoe to keep in your toolbox for future repairs. That will save you headaches down the road.

This is good advice or else you will learn the hard way eventually that you should have ordered spares.
