JDM 08' Metanium MG DC parts

Post by HorrorHyzer » Wed Mar 10, 2021 2:30 am

I am looking for the following items for a JDM 08' Metanium MG DC.

Star Drag Spring
Handle Fixing Nut
Retainer for the handle fixing nut
Small screw the the retainer


These ones are easy to find on ebay and some foreign websites. Here is the one I am having an issue finding.

The inside threads on the main gear shaft where the reel handle sits are stripped causing some freeplay in the handle.
I need a replacement main gear shaft for this reel.

Any leads or a Shimano part number I could search for? The reel schematic I have for this reel from the Shimano Fishing Japan website does not have part numbers listed on it.

Thanks!

The drive shaft from the Core 100 will work. BNT3817

Some of the other parts will fit, but the color will be wrong like the handle nut and retaining plate. You have to be careful not to cross thread the handle nut on, or over tighten it as it can strip the threads on the drive shaft.

I cannot thank you enough for this information. Thankfully I was able to order this along with the other part numbers I needed all from Shimano USA. You rock!
