Threaded Prop Overhaul Shop?
 
Anyone know of a shop that has parts and can still overhaul?
Had mine resealed at sensenich 65 hours ago and leaking now.

Prop Overhaul Shop
 
Had one of mine overhauled two years ago at Johnson and Sons Propeller Services in Shafter, California. Very reasonable price and excellent service.

H & H did a IRR on my front last year, very reasonable.

I used H&S in White Lake, MI. I was very happy with the communication, price, speed, thoroughness and demeanor of the shop. Really can't say enough about them.

The limiting factor you're likely to run into is the availability of ferrules. They are required to swap them, but seems they aren't made any more. So the shop has to dig through it's personal stash of used to find a good fit.

If you're interested in two newly overhauled threaded-type I may be interested in selling. Thinking about doing a conversion (but the composites are mondo expensive so working through budget). My current thread-type still only have 25 hours.

Ferrule's can be reused They can only be drilled four times for pins and there must be 1/2" of meat between drill holes if my memeory is correct

This is for Canada I not sure if it is the same in the US

The few different shops that I had spoken to about overhauling a threaded type had described the challenge as being one of finding good used ferrules because they couldn't put my old ones back into the same prop. It's not that they can't be reused, so much as they can't be reused back in the same prop. Don't remember the exact details, but I do remember them telling me that they might be able to use my ferrules for some other prop but would have to find other ferrules for mine.

I highly recommend replacing it with a “new” non threaded propeller. The guy at Aircraft Propeller Works can do it all, including making you a new propeller. And excellent prices. Talk to them before you decide.
