Left handle shaft for 04 Stella 1000
Hi,
I recently purchased a Stella 1000 from japan for a great price. After purchasing, I realized that the handle shaft was on the right and is only designed for the right side. It did not come with a left handle shaft so I can fish the reel with the handle on the left. Is there any replacement handle shaft I can buy anywhere? They are sold out on most sites I see and I do not know the actual part number. Thanks!

We are out of stock. Someone else recently on this forum just asked for the same part. I'm sure you can find the post below and it has some links and places to try.

Awesome thanks! The reel I purchased is the 1000. Is the shaft the same for the 2000s and the 1000/1000s? I didn’t know for sure because the 2000s has the 2500 body.

The 1000 and C2000S should be the same but I am not 100% sure.

Ok thanks. I may just order it just to check. The 2000S has the 2500 body but shallow spool. I’m not sure but I’ll take the plunge and check. Thanks for the help!

If yours is based on the 2500 then the 1000 size shaft may not work. It might thread in, but could be a little too short for proper thread engagement. If you can give me the number on the foot of your reel (top of foot by the name Stella) I can check the Japanese schematics and see if they are available. The number should be 5 digits like 02426 or 03xxx.

I was the one that asked....Good luck. I found the "correct" part number (thanks to Dan) on ebay and it came in the wrong part--the seller listed it wrong. I looked for months and the only option I found was another handle with a left shaft....and the guy wanted $100...I gave up and sold my reel to a lefty...

The newer model reels now use common parts such as the threaded shafts and such. This makes it a lot easier. The older reels had a lot of different tooling between models and sizes.
