Just put a new Vengeance prop on a few weeks ago with the FloTorq 2 hub kit. I torqued it to 55lbs per the manual but I can still move the prop forward and backward (barely) but there is some play. Can this be fixed with adding some SS washers or is there something else going on? All parts of the kit were there and used. I know this is a popular prop on this site, anybody else have the same issue?

The only washer you need is the brass thrust washer that came with the prop. Do not add any extra washers. The slight movement is normal and won't hurt anything.
