Will be replacing the B2853 motor, but will need any additional gaskets or seals to go with the Sta-Rite pump Model # P2RA5E-181L (1L996). Any recommendations?

Hi Dale, You will need the Sta-Rite Dura Glas & Max E Glas Pump Tune Up Kit. However there is a Pre-1998 (GOKIT6) and a 1998-Current (GOKIT54). The Pre-1998 has the Seal Insert and the 1998-Current does not, so you will have to inspect your seal plate to find out which kit you need.
