Pro Gear Compatable parts?

[gstours]

  Ive seen a few Pro Gear 4 and 5 hundred series reels for sale, and was wondering if these reels have any parts inside compatable with the Senators?  As they have a decent frame,spool, plates,  what is the weak points?  They are not very common it seems?   Just wonderin.

ProGear 251/255 is like an Accurate Squidder Magnum. It uses a Jigmaster bridge, gear sleeve, anti-reverse dog, eccentric cam, and eccentric lever. I'm not sure about the eccentric and it uses a different yoke.

ProGear 541/545 is like an Accurate Magnum jigmaster. It uses a 113H bridge, gear sleeve, anti-reverse dog, eccentric cam, and eccentric lever. I'm not sure about the eccentric and it uses a different yoke.

ProGear 454/440/441 and YellowTail Special uses all 113H internals.

You would love a Pro Gear 454 Gary,  and I just happen to have an extra for sale.    Sorry for the plug....  Just love the updated old school stuff.

Just like a 113h with a strong frame.  I always put Penn's updated drag stack and a SS gear sleeve if I'm going to fish them.  I stopped buying steel gears for them because I have never stripped a gear fishing SF area.  The ProGears have manganese bronze mains that are plenty strong enough.

Also the Penn 24-349 handle and star fits perfect and makes it bullet proof.

Great for the mogambo halibut you keep showing pics of.

Thanks for the info,  seems like I got behind somehow?  A new project build is planned.  Now i gotta start looking for a sleeper.
