Thrust washer for OMC Renegade prop

[metriccrescentwrench]

I found a Renegade Bass prop ( 13-1/2 X 25 p/n 175738) on ebay based on the recomendation of someone who has the same boat and engine (1990 Johnson 200) as me. It doesn't fit my existing thrust washer, which has an OD of 2-7/8 and diameter of shoulder is about 2-1/2.

As best as I can tell the thrust washer to fit the Renegade will need to have an OD of about 2-5/8 and the shoulder diameter will need to be approximately 2-1/4. So far I haven't been able to find any part nubers or a source for the correct thrust washer. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

OMC had 4 thrust washers for the V6s. One for a 3 blade prop on gearcases before 1991 (if I remember right), another for a 4 blade. Then two more for gearcases after 1991, one for a 3 blade and one for a 4 blade.

Are you sure you want a 13 1/2" diameter prop on a V6 (4 3/4") gearcase?

I'm just going by what someone who has a very similar setup has told me. He had tested several different props and the Renegade was the one he liked the best. I guess I'll find out for myself what it does once I get this boat rebuilt and in the water. I've never driven it before so have zero experience with the setup, gotta' start somewhere.

What boat do you have? Does it have a jackplate? What kind?

It's a '79 Checkmate Eluder (18-1/2 ft.), and yes there's a 6" manual jackplate.

In the experiences we've had with those props they don't seem to like a lot of jackplate height. That's a pretty good hull design but if I remember right they could benifit from a prop with bow lift.

I have the exact same issue. Did you ever find a thrust washer for that renegade prop? If so could you furnish a part number? Thanks...
