Finally got around to putting my 112h back together after installing the SS gear sleeve. Cleaned and greased everything while I was in there. After switching to freespool and then re-engaging the eccentric, when I turn the handle, it will move just a little bit, and then there's a clunk that I'm guessing is the pinion popping into place on the spool spindle. Is that what I'm feeling/hearing? Is this a natural quirk of the reel, or is there something wrong with my re-assembly?

Correct! Its telling you that its working nicely.
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

It will be smoother underload.

I love that "clunk" sound when a big one takes off on a slow roll. Right after you hear it, its time to hold on!
