Spinner is out of round, prop has been chewed up by the spinner and the sheared bolts mangled the hub.
Not sure if I forgot to tighten the bolts or perhaps I over tightened them ?
I sent Lorne a note and offered to buy a hub. Lorne called Fergie and Fergie is sending me a new hub direct with no charge
A huge to Lorne and Fergie. Customer service at it's finest
