Strut Bearing Replacement

Replacing the strut bearing on our 1988 O'Day 322
My brother-in-law made the tool I used, and the craftsmanship and quality of the fabrication and machining is superb.

How much does that tool cost?

[@TallyHo322]

My bother in law made this one. There is a commercially available one on the market for about $300 I think. Google StrutPro.

I was wondering about pitch and rotation

[@TallyHo322]

Not sure I understand your question Suzette. I didn’t change the propeller pitch or rotation.

​@@TallyHo322she may wonder if that prop is installed in correct orientation.

[@TallyHo322]

@@Beba-qv3db The shaft and the prop hub are tapered, so it only fits on one way.

@@TallyHo322 I hope mine is that way too😉 so I don't screw up. TY for your videos.
