    Hello everyone, i write from spain! i recently buy an alpa 34fly with 2 6bta 1994 315hp and HSW800 V1 gearbox.

    i need to change the flying butress bearings( i have used google translate..), what is the easier way to do it, remove the shaf, or only the propeller?

    if i need remove the shaf, how can i do it?

    thanks!

    No idea what that is but if it’s the cutlass bearing like Rob mentioned, get the right size tool from “Strut Pro” and be done with it. Ā Pretty easy to use. Ā Several vides on how it works.

    Good luck,
