Depending on what you have, you may not need the forward one, but probably the aft one.<br /><br />Here's a picture of all the parts I think you need, apart from the prop itself:<br /><br />

<br /><br />The complete set is about $41 here at iboats, or $46 over at Overton's. Better double-check though, that you get the right parts for your engine and prop.

The prop housing might be longer than standard and you need a thinner washer to compensate.
