The heavy brass thrust washer should be removed immediately after the propeller and kept with the other parts. It is a vital component of of the prop reinstall process. Don't lose it. Regards.
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. Great advice & we appreciate you sharing. We completed a full lower unit rebuild recently, videos coming in May. Hope all is well.
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders I haven't done anything further yet because I'm waiting on replacement parts, as it sits o can still drive it so I may take it out this weekend. I will post here next week once the parts get in and I remove it. I feel like a most likely will need to cut it off.
@@vinny1028 We appreciate the follow up, we know all too well about drilling 🤣 Not sure if you’ve seen our video on removing the Bearing Carrier. Link below. th-cam.com/video/pWJ8lpVvu4A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=lisNEFcPAMl2op8- 😁👍🧰
Hey Chuck, thanks for watching. Any update? Hopefully it’s just corrosion buildup as opposed to melted aluminum from overheating engine. Keep us posted. 😎👍
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders I got the splined brass spacer off but the propeller is frozen on the shaft and won’t slide off. I used a makeshift puller to no avail. I stopped before I hurt myself. Either I need to order a good puller or hire someone

Lock nut was on backwards?
My tab washer receiver is stuck on. I've hit it with a hammer, tried to pry it. Used heat, wd40 to no avail. Do I need to cut it off?
Good morning ☕️ any update? We have been there, that’s never fun. Please keep us posted, a bit more heat may help.

Had to drill a hole in the washer receiver and split it open to get the prop off. The washer welded to the prop
