    Ahh. I’d have to look at the seal on the latch. It does feel like they could be missing or deteriorating on the one side for sure. Tape on the roller could be the ticket.

    Thanks for the feedback. Is there a p/n? Is it a Merc/quicksilver part or UFlex P/N? I believe I’ve seen Don mention that the Merc ‘branded’ part is different than the U-Flex part.

    Thanks Joe! Comment that the solid hub is harder on gear case going to the larger Bravo….

    Believe Savage and others mentioned the SSR can be difficult to get out if swapping props too.

    Hub P/N Change? HD Racing Hub

    2009 250 ProXS Serial: 1b750829

    It looks like 840389K06 has been replaced by 8M0183487? Pretty sure those should be fat shaft racing hubs.

    Any idea what changed and why? Found a decent...
