High five 48-815758A40 hub question

[adam.johnson25]

I bought this propeller and already have a flo torque II hub for my Volvo/penta sx drive but it doesn't look like this prop will take that hub. It almost looks pressed in. Will this not work on my boat?

Ayuh,.... That's a pressed in hub, probably for a Merc,....

 

[adam.johnson25]

So is there a different hub I need to get to make it work with a penta sx? A flo torque hub won't work?

 

[Bondo]

Ayuh,.... I donno what the Volvo prop shaft is sized too, nor it's spline count,....

You can't change the hub, it'll have to be done at a Prop Shop,....

 

[adam.johnson25]

So can the hub be pressed out and a flo torque II hub installed? Or does another pressed in hub have to be used?

 

[adam.johnson25]

So after making a few calls, the flo torque hub can't be used. Where do I find a hub that can be pressed in. Google seems to be of no help here...

Hub replacements are required to be done by a repair shop only where a hydraulic press and specially designed tools are used to remove and replace the damaged rubber hub.

Ayuh,..... That quote is from the 1st link in this google search,.....

further down the page, ya might actual find links to pressed rubber hubs,.....
