clean the rust off. coarse steel wool might work. wrap enough steel wool around a drill bit to create a somewhat snug fit in the hub of the prop. then let the drill do the work. fyi - I don't have a surface drive and don't know how the prop attaches to the shaft on a gdsd, but just trying to give you some ideas. |

you might have to heat the hub of the prop up w/ a tourch the pretty much just beat it off w/ a hammer . Then put a lot of never seize/pipe dope/copper kote then screw the new prop on after the threads are clean w/ a wire brush the never-seize is on. good luck |

heating prop may mean new seals. |

Was just thinking that Garrett, had to do it to my old LT but it was the only way to get the prop off, ended up replacing seals. I always use to pull the prop off and clean it about every 4-6 runs jsut to keep it clean |

may have to fab a piece of alum 3''x1/2''x3' with hole big enough to go over shaft at the end and bind it against prop to unscrew it. works for prodrive |
