    Switching T2 prop to mercury tempest Plus 25

    Need help... Hub Question T2 came on 2019 ZX250- Prop cracked getting warranty done so I purchased a Mercury Tempest Plus 25 to use for now. I used hub kit Flo torq 2 quicksilver model 835274Q 1 ... I am now switching that hub to Flo torq model 8m0075402 and pretty confusing.. Seems with this hub kit only comes with spacer so I guess I am suppose to use the thrust washer that came on the boat for the T2? Please Help... Thanks

    yes, you need the original thrust washer or buy a new one. Also, the original thrust washer is 2 piece, make sure you have both pieces. One stays stuck to the prop and will need to be knocked off

    I don't use any Yamaha hardware with my props. I only use the hardware that comes with the Flo-torq kits. I don't see how the Yamaha thrust washer would work on a Merc prop. They are different sizes. I don't have any Quicksilver boxes handy, so I can't confirm the part numbers. Mike on the Props board would probably be able to tell you the part number for the Quicksilver kit.
