if you can pull it by here today, ill make sure it is installed properly First put the thrust washer on , if you look inside the washer you will see a taper. the big end of the taper goes down. then put the prop on, if it is a genuine merc prop make sure the hub is inside it, then install the spline then the lock ring then the nut,, tighten to about 45 to 50 lb/ft and bend 3 of the lock tabs down. and you are done,, make sure you lube it very well all during the process.....

Like Kenny said. If you are not close to him and are near Navarre you can bring by and I'll look at it.
