Here is my running gear i just picked up today. The shaft had been turned down by somebody who had trouble fitting the zero clearance OEM coupling. He knurled it to bring it back to spec without replacement.
You will also notice the keys are now pinned. The prop has been pitched and cupped to my spec and dynamically balanced. The turn around was 3 days.

Send it to Mattos. They just did all of my running gear and it came out better than new. Dan is also a friend and colleague, besides the machine shop he is one of the premier diesel engine surveyors in the country. I know he just finished building a new custom strut table and can handle anything you throw at him very quickly.
I dont know his address because I just drive there and I only have his personal cell phone. This is a real shop, not his garage and I 100% personally guarantee top quality work and communication. That is just the kind of guy he is. Dan Mattos: 239-850-0238 BTW, I need a pylon, mount and BF boom shipped from Memphis to FL 34145. Can you help a brother out? |

Help me out guys:
Need a list of qualified businesses anywhere in the country that I can send the subject parts to for straightening and/or repair. Taking these off in the morning for examination and I work for FEDEX so shipping is not an issue. Thanks as usual, Scott |
