I recently took apart a 12/0 senator just to oil and re grease everything when I put it back together the gears are grinding and it looks like the main gear is digging into the housing of the reel. this reel didn't have any issues before I took it apart I've try putting it back togeather 4 times now still same issue and I'm pretty confident that I have everything we're it needs to be.can any one Help me fix this issue?

If you have the main gear rubbing the housing , something is out of order.  Can you take pictures and post them .  It will help to walk you through and get it rite again .

it almost sounds like you have two drag washers under the main gear.   :-\
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

I can take it apart slowly and add pics along the way I hope this helps

I only have 1 fiber washer under the main gear

Great pictures. Nice progression. Does the main gear and(or)the gear sleeve wobble when it's all together?

Try centering the main gear when tightening the bridge screws. Sometimes there is excessive slop and the gear hits the side plate.

  You can go easy on the grease .  For some reason the ratch looks upside down to me .  All else look good .

The main gear has a little side to side play would that effect it? The sleeve has some up down because of the pin holding it in but no side to side play. How do I center the main gear better I thought when I put those 4 screws in it will sort of center it self because I won't be able to start threading them on if it wasn't center?

What part is the ratch? I can't find it on the schematic.

There occasionally is a bit of play in the holes.  I eyeball it from the outside on the open drag side plates.

That part with the # 15 116  . Was the anti reverse working when you reassemble it , they can be a pain at times .
