80 42 LRC Rudder Cutlass Size

[Tampaparadise]

Hi Gang, Yes I am a Hatt owner once again but this time an 80 Hatteras 42 LRC. I am out of the water and on the hard right now and was hoping to get the rudders repacked as it seems it has not been done since it was launched forty years ago. Anyway the port rudder has a bit more play in it than I like and since this is in preparation for doing the loop and beyond I would like to start fresh. I do have a call into Sams but have not received an answer as yet. So anyone know the cutlass bearing size in this application? My rudder shaft is 1.5" diameter.

BOSS is 2" OD
BRAD is 2 3/8 OD.

they may be longer than needed. Cut to size with a hacksaw and keep the bearing cool or the bond to the rubber can fail.

What is the prop shaft size? Many times its the same bearing.

1.5" main Shafts, and that is what I assumed but have not confirmed as yet. I will roll with that for now and when it's apart hopefully i am ready.
Thank You.
