You're being sarcastic, right?!!

Aren't PX68 handles and drag stars available from Daiwa USA yet?

Try inspecting the felt washer and shim under the bearing of the sideplate, it could be fouled. another thing to look at is the pinion shaft and the bearing under it. it might be deformed causing the spool to wobble.

USA-RET, I've had people mail items and wanted insurance for 10 times the value. People need to understand that the actual value of the item is how much will be paid on a claim. So, if Jay paid $350 for a $600 rod and it was insured for $600, he would only be reimbursed the $350 plus the postage th...

If i remember correctly, someone did make this work by shaving the line guide. not really something i would do.

Well would ya look at that... remember when everyone hated quantum cause they were so heavy. lol. :lol: Revo MGX is also the lightest baitcaster at 5.4.... just sayin. lol. :lol: The Daiwa Presso has been at 5.4oz (actual measured weight http://www.tackletour.com/reviewdaiwapressobc.html ) for the ...

Ohh not sure about that 103hl. oddly enough I've never opened up one of those reels..

103HL? (Steez or do you mean TD-Ito) Either way, I'm guessing mine was a rare case as most people say on here the steez gears drop right in. what i've found on mine tho is that my 103ml main shaft was uniform round and used pins and holes on the main gear to drive the smaller gear B. while on my ste...

Nitro, You might want to check the 103ml main shaft if it matches the Steez's before you get the gears. for some odd reason, my 103ml had a different configuration main shaft and the Steez gears didnt work, unless I switch the main shafts too.

Unbelievable!

Now I'm no rocket scientist, so someone correct me if im wrong here.. smaller gears at a faster gear ratio = same IPT of the bigger gear of slower ratio (7.1) - seems the only real world difference here is that you'll need more force to turn that gear to achieve the same speed, especially under load...

LOL, Man i feel like i'm back in 1989.. when Jethro Tull beat out Metallica in the Grammys for best hard rock / Metal performance. I hope Abu makes good use of this award for their marketing, they'll need it..
