Post Longtail prop wrench.
I don't know why I haven't put it on here yet. . This is the best combo pipe wrench/cheater bar to remove a stuck go devil type threaded on prop , in my opinion. Buy a hickory sledge hammer shaft, drill 7/8 hole in one end of it. Slide over threads between the ears of prop. Works like a charm.

Post Re: Longtail prop wrench.
So, Huck, how do you immobilize the shaft on your swomp 23 when you use your custom prop wrench? On my MB LT, I use either the long handle on a pipe wrench or a very stout long screwdriver. The frame on the swomp is a little different than flat metal frame LT's. Just wondering because I intend to purchase a swomp sooner than later and I want to prepare for this. I've always recommended backing off the prop at least once a season to clean the threads and apply anti-seize grease to prevent binding issues. Thanks!
By the way, great idea!

That looks like a lot of wheel to be swinging on that poor little 23 ;)

Thanks, Frank! I thought maybe the swomp required something else.
