I agree...I was not able to apply the proper torque to the prop nut when I first installed the prop and I think this is the cause for the ticking sound. The prop spacer seems kinda Micky mouse too me...I feel like even when I get another one it will not stand up to 55 pounds of torque. I think I should try a larger tab washer between the spacer and nut. I will update when I get it fixed. Thanks again for the suggestions!
