    Indeed, I hadn't thought about that when you told me about the towing job the other day. Let us know how things work out with the storage facility Brian. - Jeff

    I don't know how everyone else does it, but I use a 2 x2 or 2 x 4 to hold the prop from turning when removing the nut. You want to be careful not to damage the props. Also, make sure the prop lock washer deals have been flipped open, not sure what you will have on there. Anyone?
