Thanks

been looking for a schematic.  looked everywhere.  no luck.

I'm thinking its on the inside pinion
I just noticed in the photo
the large pinion has a raised lip that I assume goes against the opening side
were as the small pinion doesn't have a raised lip
its just a pain unscrewing them when you are wrong

After playing with the Japanese made shimano ,the quality in there product is notable compared to the Malaysian made shimano
The graphite frame is so nice

Is that just a flat washer? I cannibalize the shims out of cheap spinning reels when they're going in the trash. Most of them that I have taken apart have a shim(washer) on top of the main gear. Sometimes it's copper, sometimes brass. Guess they use a variety of materials for a shim there depending on the cost of the reel.

yep that's it
main gear drive has a raised lip were the bushing sits against it
the small drive has nothing
I pulled the drive off again and fitted the flat washer were the small cog is so the internal bushing has something to rest against
It actually feels better to whined
I will let sleeping dogs lye and see how it goes
