As Alto Mare said, the pin hole didn't line up with the notch on the shaft on the bridge. It was a small overlap and I chose to file the notch a little higher. I will say that the shaft is pretty hard metal, so using the small files I had took awhile. A Penn bridge is easier by far but I didn't have one and I needed the reel for a trip (that got canceled by weather).

Yes the pro gear would work, we have ways of making many things work around here. I did not do any filing on mine, the pin hole didn't line up with the notch on the shaft and needed to be drilled at the right location. If you have a pro gear bridge, I'm going to recommend that you  purchase a penn bridge. It will be easier, better and you'll be done with it. A new bridge is not that costly, if you need me to send you one, just send me a pm and I'll put one in the mail. Your cost would be the shipping.
Hey man thnx for offer but just picked one up.
