Hi Paul 
Use a short length of tube with a larger diameter than the lug as a 
reaction point on the back face of the prop flange to allow the lug to 
be drawn into position using a threaded rod with plate washers behind 
the nuts. Don=99t what ever you do hit it with a hammer and 
don=99t trim them either.
Best of luck

Hi to all,- hope you can help. Trying to fit drive lugs (x6) into prop 
flange ?? 1) They are very very tight & I'm worried about getting them 
halfway in  & then not being able to take them out again ??? 2) How do 
you put enough force on them anyway? - you cannot tap them in from the 
back as the gearbox is in the way ? Is there a special clamp to draw 
them in ( can't use a normal G-clamp)? Should they be lightly trimmed to 
ease their fitment??? Thankyou in advance. Paul Munford Kit 625 NG
