What size packing do I need

[dockedwages1]

We have a 74 F-44 with 440's. What size packing do I need to get?

Do you know the shaft size ?

I post this about once a year LOL

1" shaft uses 1/4" packing
1 1/8" shaft uses 3/16" packing
1 1/4" shaft uses 1/4" packing
1 3/8" shaft uses 5/16" packing
1 1/2" shaft uses 1/4" packing
1 3/4" shaft uses 1/2" packing
2" shaft uses 3/8" packing
2 1/4" shaft uses 7/16" packing
2 1/2" shaft uses 5/16" packing
3" shaft uses 9/16" packing

Funny I don't know the shaft size. And I'm not close to the boat this weekend. I found the post you put up last year and took a screen shot of it. Hoping someone would know the shaft size and then I could get the right size packing. I guess the shaft size may not be the same on all F-44s?

There could be different sizes . But I am only showing 1 1/2 for the F44 . Paper work is dated early 75
