Bailer Morris TRT
Hi there chaps,
I have a Bailey Morris 2 piece prop, that incorporates TRT and a slider at the rear section. My car is IRS so the sliding capability is to overcome
poor measurement and make fitting/removal easier.
In the rear section there is big a threaded fitting. It doesn't have a hex fitting, but is ridged. It looks like it sort of locks the sliding
section, but I am not sure.
Anyway, what am I suppose to do with this? tighten it up by hand, tighten it with mole grips, or something else?
I have a bit of prop noise (although I think it is from the final drive in the engine), but It something I would like to understand better.
Thanks,
Matt

The nut you refer to retains a felt seal which is there to help keep the grease in the sliding section. Tightening it up by hand will be sufficent.
Cheers

Cool, thanks.
I guess I should have taken the thing apart when I first got it and taken a good look.
I like taking things to pieces, but ever since I disassembled an electric screwdriver and a clock both of which previously worked and then
couldn't get them back together I have been a bit wary!
Thanks,
Matt
