bushing to bearing project

[Midway Tommy]

It would be my guess that since the inside one is deeper it's there as a spacer.

it's a pretty standard 9x20x6 stainless steel bearing.

You should have received the bearings by now. Let us know how it's working out.

Hi Keith - No, not yet.  Thanks for the heads-up.

PM sent.

The bearings came.  Looks to fit on the on the gear shaft without an issue.

Thank you Keith for the bearing and for everyone's help! 

Before I put this back together, I wanted to see what folks are using for grease?  I used Penn grease on it originally when I had torn it down but, it seems to have started to dry out.  Is anyone cutting their grease with oil? 

Thanks everyone,

Matt

I guess I should have used Alan's bearing packer to fill those bearings with grease.

I have one container that has Yamaha grease mixed with CorrosionX for spinning reels.

It will be fine as it is.

I put the reel back together cutting the penn crease with a little reel-x on some of the internal moving parts.  I just used the reel-x to lubricate on top of the bearing cover before installing.  The reel is now spinning a lot more free.  If I hold the reel upside down, now the handle will fall and cause the rotor to spin, which was not happening before. 

I'm glad you are headed home.  Thanks for your help with this project.  It was as much educational as it was fun.

I'm glad it's working out for you

if the bush is a conventional round bush then you shouldnt have any problems finding a suitable bearing
to replace it.
Just measure the bush width bore size and outer diameter.
I recently converted a Daiwa SL20SH to 4 bearing with no problem at all.
It also does not matter if the bush is made of plastic or metal
