    Default Do prop locks work?


    BPS has a McGard Prop Lock for 50 bucks. Never had one, but, I just got this feeling about it. You folks probably know what I mean here.

    My 50 hp is too small for a prop lock. The only time I'm venerable is when I stay overnight at Kerr Reservoir. I have never had any problems with theft there.

    Lot of thieving going on around the lake area, Buchanan, Springville areas. Keep your stuff locked up if anyone comes this way.

    Hey Tom, I've got one on mine and it works just fine. Not sure if its the same brand or not but I paid about 50 for it.

    Tom, I've also got one....works very well. I'm sure anyone up to theiving props would easily give up on it. Without the key, your not getting it off with anything other than a cutting torch.

    don't lose the key, you can pay for many props if you do

    The Mcgard is as good as they get.If you do lose the key you can cut it off with a grinder, weve had to do it number of times.
