My prop hubs are the old style with the tabs that bend up holding the hub in place. I have some cleavers that I want to put on , but they are not condusive to this type of design. What are my options. Can these be converted to the end screw type without dissassembly? Is this conversion still available? Are there any better options? As always your information is greatly appreciated. Thanks Rick

You can drill and tap the center of the shaft with a 5/16 18 tap and use a long hub prop with a center locking bolt

Use the prop cone as a guide to drill the hole for the tap. I did mine right on the boat with a cordless drill and it was no problem.
