    Hub kit 835257A1 vs 835257K6

    Are 835257A1 and 835257K6 interchangeable as far as props go? Would the A1 part# be the 55 ft lb torques spec and the K6 be the 100 since A1 has no front bushing in the insert just an empty cone?

    yes but i would add the bushing even to the A1, the k6 is suppose to be used on surface piercing setups which most hi perf bass rigs are when set up right

    The parts of the A1 are essentially identical- it's just not equipped with the "conical filler sleeve" that seats against the thrust washer.
