FXP prop help

[colaynug]

Hi
see attached photo of center bushing on the prop. Removed the prop just checking for fishing line on the shaft and noticed that the center bushing is bulging in one area.
The marks you see are where I put a punch on it trying to push it back in.
Is this anything to be concerned about?
Appreciate the help

I wouldn't worry about it, the hub is pressed in and can deform slightly during install but doesn't pose an issue

agree with comments above. You can put two marks with a punch on the inner splined hub and the outer ring to see if it is moving. Most likely it will not be moving. these are pressed in and over time (years ) they can slip
