You look that up the reference number in the table to get the complete part number (which for a 2001 model, and some other years, would be 49063-1057) If I do a search for 46093-0002 nothing comes up. Can you post a link to the part you're referring to?That is the part number, but it took a lot of searching to find someone who sold the second half in a complete package. If you are ordering this part make sure you provide the full part number including the suffix 46093-0002 which provides both halves of the seal. Part #49063 is just the part that goes into the crankcase. Also it's a good idea to replace the o ring on the shaft as well. Thank you again for your help!
Take care,
Pete
Edit: OK, I see maybe the part you're referring to is: 49063-0002 ?? https://www.partzilla.com/product/kawasaki/49063-0002
Interesting: the 1500 is not show in the list of models that part fits. Something still seems goofy here.

- August 11, 2021, 06:20:39 AMYes, I found that part, but that is only half of the seal. You only get the part that presses into the core or crankcase. The other half of the seal is not mentioned anywhere. I only received that seal without the other half. Thank you for your help!
Take care,

- August 10, 2021, 16:59:32 PMHi,
I am having a hard time finding the water pump mechanical seal. There are 2 parts to the seal. One spring loaded seal that is fitted into the casing (half of the carbon/ceramic seal shaft seal) the other half is a ring seal that sits on the inside of the impeller(other half of carbon/ceramic seal). Kawasaki dealer cannot find the part. They don't know what I'm talking about and can't seem to help. I have been on their website and their exploded view doesn't even show both seals. Can't seem to find the part online either. Anyone have any information on where I can find the right seal for my 2002 Drifter 1500R. Thank for any direction!
Take care,
Pete
