All 113h's have a stainless pinion gear. The early ones have a heat treated steel main gear. Later mains are all bronze.

cant figure out why the spool is not wanting to go in straight, i even tried another spool same thing, i have to force it over, this is with the accurate frame and the left hand side piece.

Is the clicker button retracted so the clicker gear on the spool can drop down even with it?

Try moving the button on the outside of the "left-side plate" towards the outer circumference of said plate. This moves the pawl(arrow lookin thingie) outta the way of the click gear.
I've assembled several like that( pawl on topa the gear, insteada lined up) and haven't done any knowen permanent damage, but I can see where it might. I do have at least 2 Penns that came to me with loose click gears and maybe that's what happened to 'em.
Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Both are completed and ready to slay some gags after the hurricane passes!

Hopefully the hurricane moves through and we can get out Sunday near Bayport and get them shallow!

How did you get the spool to seat in the left plate? What was the problem? By the way don't snug the left bearing up against the spool. The spool is supposed to have .0025 to .005"side to side play. Good luck fishing with those two reels.        Rudy   ps you never left your name.

Possibly the top eared metal drag washer popped out of the gear grooves — either upon assembly or afterwards.

Pretty common and easy to correct issue, if this is it.
