Prop bush

Post by dingy2 »

My 40 plus prop bush is worn and wobbles on the shaft.
Can this be pressed out and a new bush fitted to fix the alignment.

Hi there,
Don't know if its strictly necessary but mine was the same so pressed mine out made up a new one out of old aircraft engine valve guide (phosphor bronze)pressed it in and reamed it out to give a .0015L fit seems to work ok
