Hey All,
Laid out my 220n parts after cleaning kind of where I think they go (pics 1 and 2) and had a shim left over (pic 3 next to booklet) that I don't remember taking off and don't see in schematic.  Fits perfectly on main gear shaft however- is that where it is from?
Thanks, Russ

Okay that must be the right place for the shim because I put it there and this reel is smoothest by far of the reels I've taken down, cleaned and put back together since I found this site. Only small issue (quibbling here) is that the bail wire moves slightly in and out sometimes on the side with the small black plastic plug- or maybe that is normal. Seems like it couldn't be with such a place for everything and everything in its place reel.

I like this 220N so much! It is so smooth it almost makes me want to go back and do my Mithcells and Shakespeares all over again- almost. Anyway as I mentioned above there is one little detail that is bugging me - bail wire slides in and out a little bit from side of bail assembly with plastic plug. Plug itself is damaged I think (see pics). Not a huge deal just wondering if a new plug would solve issue or is there some other way you guys recommend to stop the sliding in and out of the wire.
