    I hooked up boat trailer to truck and used a floor jack to place the prop against the trailer tongue like a press to remove it. Don't remember if I used a large socket or what I used between the prop hub and trailer tongue but it worked!

    I would leave it alone and get another hub kit, with my primary prop I run the ssr, but I also have the racing hub for ease of prop change for trying other props and my backup. I see no difference in operation between the two hubs. But I do like the tight fit of the SSR
    Thank You Leon Pugh

    I used a 1-1/16 deep socket on an extension, a 3 pound drilling hammer, 2 short pieces of 2x4, a couple good licks and its out.
