A good hub keeps the prop biting cleanly and gives the drivetrain a little forgiveness when you bump something underwater—as every boater eventually does. This Flo-Torq II kit lets you bolt a Quicksilver prop onto a Yamaha while still giving the lower unit that built-in “cushion” these drives appreciate. It’s a simple, tough setup mechanics like because it works and doesn’t leave you stranded over something avoidable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"633\" data-end=\"636\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"638\" data-end=\"656\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"657\" data-end=\"1128\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"660\" data-end=\"687\"\u003eYamaha VMAX SHO Fitment\u003c\/strong\u003e – Works on 115–250HP models that use the two-piece Yamaha thrust washer.\u003cbr data-start=\"760\" data-end=\"763\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"766\" data-end=\"794\"\u003eImpact-Cushioning Design\u003c\/strong\u003e – Helps protect the gears if the prop clips debris or bottom.\u003cbr data-start=\"856\" data-end=\"859\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"862\" data-end=\"887\"\u003eField-Serviceable Hub\u003c\/strong\u003e – Swap the insert without replacing the whole hub.\u003cbr data-start=\"938\" data-end=\"941\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"988\"\u003eLets Yamaha Owners Run Quicksilver Props\u003c\/strong\u003e – Clean fit, no weird adapting or spacing tricks.\u003cbr data-start=\"1038\" data-end=\"1041\"\u003e • \u003cstrong data-start=\"1044\" data-end=\"1069\"\u003eOEM-Quality Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e – Built to handle torque, heat, and repeated prop changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1130\" data-end=\"1133\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1135\" data-end=\"1168\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1169\" data-end=\"1318\"\u003e • Yamaha VMAX SHO 115HP\u003cbr data-start=\"1193\" data-end=\"1196\"\u003e • Yamaha VMAX SHO 150HP\u003cbr data-start=\"1220\" data-end=\"1223\"\u003e • Yamaha VMAX SHO 200HP\u003cbr data-start=\"1247\" data-end=\"1250\"\u003e • Yamaha VMAX SHO 250HP\u003cbr data-start=\"1274\" data-end=\"1277\"\u003e • Models using a 2-piece thrust washer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1320\" data-end=\"1323\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1363\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Practical Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1364\" data-end=\"1796\"\u003eA Flo-Torq hub makes the whole driveline feel smoother—cleaner shifts, tighter hole-shot, and fewer rattles at idle. And if you tag a stump or bounce the prop off something unexpected, the hub is designed to give a little instead of sending the shock straight into the gearcase. It’s also handy for folks who like to test props or run different setups since the insert is easy to replace. It just makes living with the motor easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1798\" data-end=\"1801\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1803\" data-end=\"1820\"\u003eWhy Buy OEM\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1821\" data-end=\"2078\"\u003eOEM hubs simply fit better and take more abuse. Cheap hubs wear out early, chatter on the spline, or don’t absorb impacts the way they should. Flo-Torq hubs have been around long enough to earn a solid reputation—they hold up in real use, not just on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"2080\" data-end=\"2083\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"2085\" data-end=\"2094\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2095\" data-end=\"2235\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2095\" data-end=\"2145\"\u003eQ1: How can I confirm this hub fits my Yamaha?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2145\" data-end=\"2148\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2148\" data-end=\"2154\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e If your VMAX SHO uses the two-piece Yamaha thrust washer, this is the right kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2237\" data-end=\"2357\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2237\" data-end=\"2287\"\u003eQ2: Can I replace the insert on its own later?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2287\" data-end=\"2290\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2290\" data-end=\"2296\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yep.
