Thanks, Marc..

SS gear sleeve, yoke, & dog. No gears available. 114H Tib or Accurate frame will fit. Same handles available for the 114H will fit. Not as many options as a 114H. If it has 3 washer drags, 5 washer drags are available from Scott's.     Rudy

Looking at that picture Marc, you are going to need a handle side bushing as well.

Yup!! I hope the part is just missing
Was wondering, I know you use bigger Penn for the type of fishing you do(shark) How would that 114 fare ?

Compared to a 9/0, I don't think it has the groceries. ;)
The smallest reel I bring is a 114H from the beach.

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

Some 6/0's could make a 9/0 crawl back in their hole ;)

Two different Animals Sal. That is another one of a kind based on the 114H, not the 114.
The 114H Based Wex is a 9/0 on steroids, as is your unique reel.
The regular 114 just doesn't have the guts.
I have at least a half dozen Tanked 9/0's.
I really think they are the most powerful Senators there are in a compact package.
Until I get a 10 footer under my belt, I will be running 12 and 14/0's and a 9/0 on the side. ;)

Yup, the 114 is different animal... still very capable reel.

Marc, the 114 will make a great Grouper reel  for the biggins. :D It will pull like a winch with it's 2 to 1 gearing.

Bryan Young

I have one of these too.  I need to make a drag kit for them as they are excellent grouper reels, but there is a need for a little bit more drag to stop those monsters.
: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

Marc,

I don't think you can change over from the original Chrome / Brass spool over to the Aluminum one from a Penn 114 H . . . 

The shafts are different, because the 114 uses Bushings and the 114H uses Ball-Bearings.

I have a very clean, original 114 Chrome/ Brass spool, if you are interested ?

If you have already gotten an Aluminum spool for a 114H, I would be willing to do a "straight swap", depending on the condition of the aluminum spool.

ez2cdave

This is the difference between a 114 Spool and a 114H Spool . . .

114 is on the LEFT . . . 114H is on the RIGHT !
