spinner installation
Can someone please provide some detailed instruction as to how an aluminum spinner and prop adapter are installed? Lots of pieces (some are left over I'm sure) but zero instructions with spinner and prop adapter. Engine is Magnum .91 two stroke spinner and prop adapter are Tru Turn.
1. Centering the backplate? Bushing included with spinner is to small for engine shaft. Purchase a larger one? Are there any tricks or bushing substitution ideas? 2. Thrust washer that came with engine. Is it used or is the steel washer that came with prop adapter substituted? 3. Prop nut and jam nut that came with engine. Where do the adapter nuts fit in? Thanks |

Here's where you can buy the bushings only to center the back plate

RE: spinner installation
It depends on your plane.
I would think a 2" would be minimum with that engine A 2 1/2" would look good Try to get the spinner with the metal back plate http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXBMY8&P=7 |

i just bought that spinner for a .40 mag my friend gave me. ill check again but i dont think the prop (14x6 or 15x4) would fit in the "cavity". also how would i ream it, (i have a prop reamer, use that?) |
RE: spinner installation
I use a rat tail file to make the spinner clear the prop
