Pullrachet,
Why would you want to change the gears in your 505 to newells when they are the same gear ratio..... ???
Get on the water, Man!!!

Pullrachet,

this is what I was looking for yesterday, but couldn't find it. There was already a discussion on your subject.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

You are correct Anthony,  but we're not too concerned about gear ratio as long as we use parts that mesh. Cool name by the way, that's what I named my son.

Sal: I didn't know you had a son named Panama :-\. 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.

Just wanted to upgrade for added strength etc.

By the way, if you didn't know, I poste pics of my 505HS gear and my Newell SS gear for jigmaster.
: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

So are the pinion gears interchangeable or not

Here's what Alan said in the thread link from Sal above:

"If you are ok with a 4:1 gear ratio, you can use the main and pinion gear set for the jigmaster 500 (in a 505). fyi, you actually can fit the 505 high speed gears in a 500 but you have to do some drilling and grinding."

So it seems that you can use the 500 gears in a 505, but using 505 gears in a 500 requires modification to the inside of the 505 pinion gear due to differences in the spindles of the 500 and 505 spools. I'm not sure if the plate would have to be ground out for a slightly larger diameter gear or not.
