Got a 28 et copy in today and the hub has a ton of slack in it. Is this common cause it's useless unless i can get the slack out... The hub is new.
Thx, Dave. :confused:

Yes the problem is common, at least when you are trying to use the larger, solid, merc racing, 1 1/4" shaft hub. Guys with the standard 1" shaft seem to be able to make them work with the standard plastic torq flow hub. :rolleyes:

In fact I am planning on selling a blueprinted (or labbed) 24 hill et for the same reason, as I have the larger 1 1/4" shaft on my lower :(

there are two different lengths of solid hub inserts. i had the same problem with my hill hoss triton. The first solid insert wouldent fit right. i went to a merc dealer, and they gave me the length and taper that i needed.

stevenolms true with the small shaft soild hubs, but there is only one style (too short for Hill) for the large diameter, there is another thread that deals with this issue...
