Bruntons APS H5 propellor.

I will be looking at stripping my auto prop next spring to check it out , ( 4 years old ) this is some thing I not done before other then clean and greases and I will be doing this in North Africa so I need to take what every I need with me as I won't be able to import parts .
My mine concern is any special tools needed ,
it seen there a lever tool with two pins needed to remove the outer hub , at any other time I could probably make it but being stuck out in the middle of nowhere best to buy one even does £27 for a flat metal with two pins it a rip off .
as anyone else service this prop and was there any other special tool needed ?
Any advice on any parts they found worn ? Did you buy from Bruntons or from bearing supplies?


Thanks

I wonder why you see the need to open it up? Mine is 20 years old now, blades rotate with no evidence of sticking or play, all seems well with regular geasing. It has never been stripped.
