When you try and visualise the force that must have been required to distort that hub assembly it makes me shudder – and split bearing rollers, blimey!

I’ve had that before with the prop nut being loose. In our case the brass rear cone had a visible waisting where it had been squeezed by the hub being slammed back. All the same, like VX927’s prop will hopefully be, the internals are a joy to behold once cleaned up.

Great fun.
