I have a 1998 Mercury 175XL Offshore with a Mirage Plus stainless steel prop. I need a new Flo-Torq hub but am unsure which to buy. What I found online says it’s only for motors up to 135hp. I am also considering going to a Flo-Torq III but it is still the same question. Thanks for any help you can give. |

The Flo-Torq II hub kit for that motor is, by far, the most common one: 835257K 1 (Mercury branded) or 835257Q 1 (Quicksilver branded) The Flo-Torq II is for motors up to 15 HP. If you are looking for help with "shift clunk", you would want to use the Flo-Torq IV for your motor. |

[Correction ] The Flo-Torq III is for motors up to 115 HP. If you are looking for help with "shift clunk", you would want to use the Flo-Torq IV for your motor. |

I should add that I have a box full of Flo-Torq hub kits and parts if anybody needs anything. |

I'd be happy to send you one for $25. Do you need the whole hub kit? or just the Delrin plastic insert? |

I just need the plastic, the rest looks good. |

Do you take PayPal? Can you ship today using Priority mail so I can have it by Friday? I am in Alabama. |

I just tried an OMC prop on my Mercury and it looks like it would work with a spacer or double thrust washer, anyone ever done it? |
