According to US websites the prop nut is 2-3/4 inches which is a tad under 70mm. Is the UK version different?

I thought people only complained about Volvo Penta prices, VP sell their prop removal tool for about 20 quid - bargain

Hi

As it happens i also need the same tool, will this box tool fit, my only worry is that the original box tool has a fitting for a smaller socket welded into the end, this one does not from what i can see and you need to put a bar through it to turn it, but if the shaft is in the middle, wont this prevent you from turning it?

So in effect you will be stuck with the same problem with no way to turn it without a huge spanner?

Hi mctaggart
Re the 70mm box spanner £29.00 on e bay done the job on my bravo 3 duoprop i have a socket for the smaller one i have a large Stilson wrench to turn the the box spanner but a friend is welding a nut to the end so a a socket can be used in future or you could weld a short bar to it so you can get a long tube on as a wrench
ps.
Would not use the Stilson to tighten the nut as it may damage the nut
happy boating
