mstam1971,
Do you own or have access to a dial indicator? After you pull the propdriver you can check the crank for run out. .002 should be the max. The original propdriver on my DL was .0075.[X(]
No I don't.
Got myself a strap wrench but it's not holding up so I'm gonna need to make a metal tool to hold the prop hub. See if I can get a dial indicator. Strange that this issue seems to be new or else I would have had noticed earlier.
The clicking sound is a mystery. There are no metal parts left, bearings look fine, no play and no grinding.
Get a couple of cheap 5mm bolts and thread them into the prop driver. wedge a screwdriver in there around the socket and break it free or use the strap wrench on the bolts. Again,the reason for removing the propbolt and driver is to see where the wobble is coming from.
Just got myself 4 5x16mm bolts from ACE
See if I can manage w/o the metal tool.
