I am looking to find where to buy an aluminum spinner nut/hub for my Ryobi 31cc (long shaft)

it is a standard 3/8x24 thread if the end has not been cut off you just get a bolt that screws in the end

Mine has the threaded shaft and I am looking for a spinner so I can use my electric starter. Thanks Ken!

I got a Harry Higgly spinner that had a smaller hole than the shaft and drilled and tapped it to the right size.

I have a Harry Higgly spinner on mine, mine is the long shaft and he has them to fit 3/8x24 threads. The only thing is I had to cut off the none threaded portion of the shaft because it wouldn't let the spinner thighten all the way down on the prop. Once I cut that off it worked perfect.

I have this one and it fits the thicker props no problem:

It doesn't work some of the thinner propss, though, so I just jam one of these between it and the prop:

Both are Harry Higley items. I don't like to cut off the tip, because if I ever need to use a spinner, I can thread the spinner bolt directly into the shaft.

If you want to make something lighter than an alum. version..



Nut is G10 FG rod cut drilled & tapped, trued on drill press and then balanced on prop balancer. An 1/8" spacer washer used for this prop. White VHMW spacer same routine.
Works fine with the blue cone on Tower hd starter.

Word is tuna at the Bajo.

The "hole" is producing lots of tuna ,what a surprise That is where I fish at when I am in La Paz. I hope to come this year and fish with Alex and Neno with Mosquito Fleet again.Check this picture out Mike and see if it looks familiar?

Thanks for the replys,looks like Harry Higley is the way to go.

Paragon aero has a nice set up. It is hollow and taps into the end(long shaft version) of the crank. I think the inside threads are 8-32. Anyway, it's not too expensive and I think they have 3 styles to choose from.

I second the Paragon recommendation. Beautuful machining at a fair price. I'm very happy with my entire Paragon conversion kit.
