Prop Quiz Hot Shots

I took my prop off the gearbox tonight to give the splines a grease, undid the shaft nut then the plastic hub retainer and the prop slid off, unfortunately the internals of the hub fell out on the bench, hundreds of little bits of spring and four rubber bits.

The actual hub was seized in place and took a bit of heat to shift it. I've never come across this style of hub before and google turns up very little, most of which is across the pond.

Anyone know where I can source the kit below please? Version MD SB

I may as well do both props. Twins are certainly turning into an EXPENSIVE luxury!

Just for future reference I've managed to source hub kits from Steel Developments as they are the UK Solas dealer.


These kits are now obsolete so if you have the Solas Alcup hub then get them while you can.

Thanks to Rob at Black Dog Marine for pointing me in the right direction.
