Default Prop hub

how often should you have your prop hub changed out (not sure if i am using the right term here but whatever you change when you have a spun prop). my prop is several years old and i never had that done.

I let it run until the rubber bushing starts slipping. 99% of the time, the prop will aways keep turning to get you back to the landing while running at 1500-2000 rpm.

I also keep a spare prop [and necessary tools] on board, just in case I need it.
