Hey guys!
So i recently bought a 2004 Tahoe Q4 and love it, but one of the props got a little nick and i feel it would be best to replace it, a guy sells them for $90 refurbished and almost brand new and has several instock. Only thing is I dont know what size to get?? He sold me a 15 1/4 x 15 prop but it hit the anode. After reading up on it im not sure if thats the best size prop? I would like a good prop size for performance and planing easily. I got a Mercruiser 3.0 and the Alpha One 2.0 in it. I would tell you what prop i got now but that one is corroded and i cant even read the numbers on it. If the 15 1/4 works, should i sand down the anode? Im not sure if i got power steering, nor do i know how to check? I heard if i got PS I can grind the anode down, which would fix the fact that id need to go exchange new propellers.
Also, forgot to raise lower unit when towing out and scraped skeg a bit, theres like 1/3 left, but I heard good and bad about skeg guards- let it be or fix it? I learned my lesson and wont let it happen haha. Thanks so much guys and what a pleasure to be on here.
