You need to find a "friendly" prop shop that will split the hub, do a
very general inspection-looking for corrosion or other very bad
things-replace all the seals and put it back together with a re-seal
sign-off.


What, in your recommendation, is a "friendly" prop shop.

Heck, I can't even name a prop shop -- period -- let alone a "friendly" one!

Thanks TC.
Another item Maxwell mentioned is that they often see the teflon quad seals
failing strictly due to an age. Their theory is that they are simply
getting old and brittle after 7 or 8 years. Now they've been replaceing
them with "O" rings that retain their softness longer.
