i think i broke the iBR :(

[soulsonic]

today i had an accident where i parked my seadoo rxp (2015) on a platform, but got too far over, and i slid it forward OFF the platform, breaking the rear break manifold system. i heard a loud cracking noise and the whole break manifold on the back fell down.

i had to manually raise it and secure with a piece of wire in order to go forward, as it was down and completely blocking.

anyone have any idea how serious this damage is? i can manually still move it up and down, it just doesn't stay up..

If you look at the parts in the rear that appear to be broken, you'll have an idea of which parts will need replacing. That'll help determine the severity of the damage and enable to you to price out the repair cost. If there's no visible external damage, you'll have to check the iBR actuating mechanism in the hull.

looks like the manifold part broke in 2 places, the top, and the rod going out to the rear.

is this something i could replace myself? any ideas which parts to order?

Take it apart, find out what's broken, and then replace the broken parts. Simple.

Chester is right, just a few bolts and the whole thing comes out. Remember to use medium thread locker when you put it back together, don't get the thread locker in the bushings , here is a screenshot showing the parts and the torques of the bolts. You can use the Sea Doo Parts at the top of the page to find the part numbers and the cost.
