      Can anyone ID this prop?  AJ60  I searched the 50’s Michigan Wheel catalogs in the inner sanctum, but didn’t see a match.

      Pretty sure that it’s for a Mercury.  Closest I could get was an AJ59.  Thanks!

          Ah, the elusive 1949 Catalog  Sadly, not represented in the Inner Sanctum here.  Thanks for the info! Now I can race my KE7 around the pond!

            I have a couple AJ55’s.
            I couldn’t find them in the Michigan Wheel Catalogs
            that I opened.
            Could you tell me which year catalog they would
            be listed in?
            On the old green board you could search props
            by the number. Is that still available?
            I couldn’t find it.

              Seems like Michigan should create a Number Reference Chart;  so much easier than searching through years of their catalogues.  Sometimes e-bay works.  Enter the number in there and search on current and sold items.  You sometimes get clues although a lot of ebay listings are less than 100% accurate.

                  Thanks oldlure for responding.
                  They use most of the clutch pack, minus a couple
                  of the plates.
                  One of them is stamped but ???????
                  I’ve used them but had to make a thin wall socket to
                  tighten the prop nut as I couldn’t get a wrench between
                  the blades.
