So after a while of messing with it, I finally got the prop nut off. Boat and motor are new to me so haven't done this before. How do I get the prop off? I'm hesitant to hold the threads tight as I don't want to strip them. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks guys. |

Also, anyone know if the nut is supposed to be torqued when put back on? And if so, what size is it? I got it off with a crescent wrench. |

If it's a hex shaft....it should just pull straight off....it may take some persuasion. If it's threaded, gotta unscrew it. |

Should be a hex just hit it she'll come off. When ya put the new one on just tighen it up good prop shouldn't move back and forth. |

It's threaded. Turns entire shaft when trying to unscrew. |

did you try tapping it with a hammer straight off should be a hex shaft not a threaded |

This what I did last time. Go buy u a second nut 7/8 course thread. Put the first nut on followed by the second. You ate using the second nut as a jam nut. Then heat the prop hub up with a tourch. If you are not planning to use that prop again beat it off with a hammer while you hold the first nut only with a 33mm socket. While u have the prop off make sure u grease the drive. Do so by taking the bearing cap off (reverse thread). Place a 1/4 #10 zert in the hole on the belt housing side of shaft. Fill till you see new grease come out of the bearings on prop end. |

Thanks for help guys. Rookie mistake. It's a hex. It came off, hopefully prop but won't give me problems next time. |
