Anyway I could send you my 14/0 side plate and pay you to do this for me?

I sent you a PM. Its not that hard to do. You just need a dremel and a steady hand.
BTW, Welcome! ;D
I just did a 16/0 and a 14/0 the same way.

This photo was from a Penn 14/0 for sale down here in Florida on Craigslist.

Are their any true stainless steel bridges available? This seller upgraded with Adam's drag insert kit amongst other stainless steel parts.

I mean I could hit the machine shop, just curious.

image attached.

That Bridge is chrome plated brass.
There are no stainless bridge options available to my knowledge.
It was a different approach to help the gears aligned.
I use them whenever I have them available.
