New TEAM DAIWA TD-Z105H with noisy bearings

I just received a new in the box TD-Z105H. When cranking the handle it is quite noisy. When free spinning the spool with my finger I get about 10 seconds of spin time which seems a bit low. It is also very noisy spinning the spool. I have tried to remove the side cover. Loosening the screw but the s...

Re: ZPI handle and click drag

The plate (washer) has no dimples but is not flat or even? Looks like the click components were removed when the ZPI handle was installed. Looking at replacing the drag star with the Calais drag star anyway. This should fix the problem. Looks like I'll need parts 3014 through to the click plate 2122...

Re: ZPI handle and click drag

Click plate is in. I just do not see the pin or spring. Is there a correct side of the click plate to be facing the handle?

Re: I'm perplexed

Scot,

Tell me it's not so ! I just sold my Sol and ordered a ITO ALPHAS 103-Ai. Should I have just looked at changing spools?

Re: Tuneup spool for Chronarch 100A

Thanks for the updates... Love the older Chronarchs.. just would like to improve them a bit. Any comments on upgrading bearings? Looking at TG's Ceramic Rocket Bearings. Are they worth $40?

ZPI handle and click drag

I just bought a Scorpion 1000 MG. It has a ZPI handle (sweet) but the drag click does not work. On inspection it seems to be missing the click pin and spring. NO reason the click cannot work with the ZPI is there? Think I just need to replace the pin and spring. Does anyone know?

Hey guys.. a bit off subject but where is the best place to buy an Alphas 103? Yastrading is a bust. Does anyone know about ecrater.com?
