My buddy has 3/8" nuts pressed into the crankshaft flange for the prop but wants to go to 7/16". Where do you buy these thingies?

Thanks,
Pierre

They are overhauling my crank and all the other steel parts right now. A.S.S. is also a parts supplier and I am very sure they would have the press in nuts. A web search pulls them up at the top of the list. They are very good about consulting over the phone so if you have a question it is appropriate to ask them.

Sincerely,
Brian Vickers, RV4 finishing

Propeller flange bushings. Get them from Lycoming, Superior and probably others.
Lycoming part number for the 7/16" is 72064 and 72065. The 76065 is odd sized for indexing the flywheel.
