today I just got to the lake I was in idle waiting for my wife to park the truck. As soon a I went to go her it felt as if my prop fell off. It would not go at all. So I had to get a tow in. Put it on the trailer and when I got it out the prop was up against the rudder. Luckly there was no damage to either of them. It seemed as if the whole driveshaft was disconnected. I pushed it back in to where it should be and found that the nut on the back side on the trany coupler was completly off. So I Put loctite on it and tightned as good as I could. Do you guys think that is all I need to do? That looked like the only problem. Has any one else had this happen to them? Seems like it could do some pretty hefty damage if you were going fast. thanks
