Bummer.  Sounds like a common issue.  Has anyone actually used Penn Main Gears and Pinions to lower the Newell gear ratios? 

The old Penns were 3.3:1 if I remember correctly, 500 series were 4.25 maybe?...and I have one or two 140s/500s/501s/etc. I could pull from...

Yes it can be done.  I just swapped out some 5:1 p338-F gears for penn 4:1 steel gears.  Didn't seem to have any issue.

Do you still have any more sets for sell?
Do my reels make me look PHAT?

I believe you can also use Penn's 505/506 gears as well.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Dawn,
   Shure could use a set of 4.6 gears for a 500 series, and a set of 3.2s for the 600 series
  Thanks,  Speedwagon2

We have to see what Alan at Black Pearl comes up with.

Has anyone heard from Frank "Nessie Hunter" it's been awhile since he posted.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

He's out riding his Harley...that would be my guess.
