Volvo DP prop wrench

Can anyone tell me the correct part number for the prop wrench I need for the inner prop on a 2004 Volvo DP drive? I'm seeing conflicting numbers depending on where I look in the net. <br /><br />Thanks!<br />Craig

There's a wrench for that? Huh, and all these years I've been removing those without it.

That would depend on which Volvo DP drive you have. What model?

Don - Sorry, guess that woulda been helpful...DP-S<br /><br />Weirdwalt - what do you use for removing the inner prop nut?

Volvo PN 3855876. The nut for the outer prop is a 1-3/16" socket<br /><br />

Thanks Don! While I'm asking you questions, I was looking to get the factory service manuals for this, and was kinda confused. Its a 5.0GXI/DP-S. All I can seem to find are workshop manuals for AQxxxx, MDxxx, etc. Any suggestion for an online source for mine? All the dealer wants to sell me is a Clymer manual.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Craig

Get me your engine serial number and I will get you the engine and drive manual numbers. Even which model 5.0GXi would help.

Re: Volvo DP prop wrench

I have a 30mm deep socket I bought from Harbor Freight, or Tool King, don't really remember. Cost something like 5 bucks. It was a 1/2" drive, so I cut the drive area out and drilled holes for a 1/4" bar and welded that in on either side, leaving the center clear of course. Then I had to grind down the outside of the socket so it would fit down in there. I have lots of tools like these I've made or modified over the years. I suppose for the time it took to make it perhaps buying one from Volvo would have been better, but I don't know what they cost.
