    Subject: Prop drive lugs
    Hi to all,- hope you can help. Trying to fit drive lugs (x6) into prop flange ?? 1) They are very very tight & I'm worried about getting them halfway in & then not being able to take them out again ??? 2) How do you put enough force on them anyway? - you cannot tap them in from the back as the gearbox is in the way ? Is there a special clamp to draw them in ( can't use a normal G-clamp)? Should they be lightly trimmed to ease their fitment??? Thankyou in advance. Paul Munford Kit 625 NG trigear

    PaulI used a short bolt (with the same thread of course) and a larger socke t bit and a washer to draw them in.It helps to soak them in a freezer too.G raham On Monday, 4 May 2015, 18:39, Paul & Vanessa Munford <pmdental@btinter net.com> wrote: Hi to all,- hope you can help.

    Hi Paul Use a short length of tube with a larger diameter than the lug as a reaction point on the back face of the prop flange to allow the lug to be drawn into position using a threaded rod with plate washers behind the nuts. Don=99t what ever you do hit it with a hammer and don=99t trim them either.

    Paul, it pays to add some graphite based lubricant to help prevent galling as you pull them in.
