Bravo 3 prop torque setting
I have a 99 Bravo 3 and I'm going to install my prop's this weekend. Does anyone know what the torque of both props.
Also is it ok to have the drive in gear to keep the shafts stable while doing this job?
Any advice would be appreciated.

100 ft. lbs. on the forward (larger) proper and 60 ft. lbs. on the rear. Just use a block of wood between the prop blade and cavitation plate to keep the props from turning when torqueing them down. Make sure to grease the splines so you can easily remove the props.
