wasnt talking about the thrust washer, but you seemed to figure it out, see if theres a thick spacer washer on the nut end of the old prop

There is not, but this is one of the ones I just ordered. On the old prop, the hub was a good half inch higher than the new one. I’m on vacation next week. I’m gonna run the prop down to the prop guy and see what it’ll cost to bring it back. Ideally, I’d like to pop a stainless prop on there and use the new aluminum as a spare. Gotta see if the old money tree blooms in the spring.

Charlie,S.S props are nice but if you run your boat where you can hit something,I would think about it, a S.S. Prop won't bend or break a aluminum prop will and save your lower unit , just my 2 cents

I know my home waters pretty good. No flats or surprises. Unless there’s a submerged hazard somewhere…. It’s all pretty much open water for me.

Charlie, I agree with Step, SS is the way to go. You never know what's in the water, that you, we can't see. I know bucks are really hard today, but if you can swing it, go for it.
Waiting for your fishing pictures!!!!!
