i just installed my new prop and everything went together perfectly. I torqued the nut down to proper specs. I think something is missing behind the prop. The very back of the prop is grinding meteal on metal. Is there somthing that i am missing that keeps the prop away from the housing. someone told me a thrust washer or thrust hub is this right.
