Product Details

The Michigan Wheel XHS11 Hub Kit #227 is engineered specifically for Suzuki V-4 outboard motors, providing superior impact protection and drivetrain longevity. This replacement hub is part of Michigan Wheel's Xchangeable Hub System (XHS), designed to absorb the shock and stress generated during gear shifting and propeller strikes.

Key Features:

  • Impact protection system designed to spin freely under significant impact, safeguarding your lower unit from costly damage
  • Absorbs stress caused by shifting gears, extending the life of your drivetrain components
  • Interchangeable with Mercury's Flo-Torq II hub system for cross-compatibility and cost savings
  • Custom engineered for Suzuki V-4 outboard applications
  • Precision-manufactured rubber hub insert ensures reliable performance

This hub kit allows you to refresh your propeller's performance without replacing the entire prop assembly. The XHS system's breakaway design acts as a mechanical fuse, sacrificing the inexpensive hub to protect expensive lower unit components when your propeller encounters underwater obstacles or significant shock loads.

You are the best price.

Good site easy to search for and find parts. The lowest prices on almost every part I have been able to find for my truck.

I was in the market for a cargo cover for my new Prius and I searched on line Autoplicity had the best price of all and plus the service was excellent as was the speed in which they promised delivery. While I have not received my shipment as of yet, I'm sure that it will be here as promised if their service is anything like what I have received already.
