MACH hub convert from 1" to 1.25"

Going to a XZ drive w/1.25" prop shaft. My MACH props all have 1"
hubs Can the rubber hub be pressed out and replaced w/1.25" ? Or what is the best plan of attack?

It can be done. It's much easier and cheaper with a front load hub than it is with a rear load hub.

Meaning, if the hub is pressed from the aft end of the prop it is more difficult to instal a large hub shaft than it is with a front load hub.

We wouldn't even concider doing a rear loading hub.

Let's discuss the current set up and performance. Is this propeller really worth rehubbing?

Any other set up changes?
