B3 question

I purchased a new bravo 3 drive along with a set of b3 prop set. I do have the retaining nuts for the props, however, is there some sort of a washer I need for them?

Yes there is, here is the front

I believe I have them on the drive. What I'm talking about is where the nuts tighten, on that side of the prop.

Sorry, if I'm not understanding, but "where the nuts tighten"

The thrust washer goes on, the front prop goes on, then the 2 3/4 nut goes on and tighten it down using something like a 2x4 between the cav plate and the prop. Using the 2x4 keeps the prop from turning while it is tightened.

Then repeat with the rear prop

and don't forget to put grease on the prop shaft

So nothing goes on after the prop and before the nut?

Correct, it is
Front prop is thrust washer, prop, nut
Rear prop is thrust washer, prop, nut

Gotcha, I thought there might be a washer of some sort that went on after the prop was on.
