Is there a part 3 to the Avet Sx /MXJ rebuld?

I have looked at the tutorials several times, but it does not show the other
half of the reel. Is there a tutorial to show how to service the other bearings and gears ?

One more thing. Is Avet red grease good for packing the other bearings?

Thanks.....

Nice tutorial from Ireland with some very good advice re reel care and preventative maintenance.
AlanT gets a mention too.

very cool. stuff like that is really great to see! when i first started this, no one else was taking the time to post tutorials with this level of detail. it is truely nothing special. it just takes a good camera, a few tools and a rainy afternoon with the wife out of the house so that you won't get detoured. anybody, and i seriously mean anybody, can do this! it is not that hard.

Not forgetting handling camera with oily fingers... I've to buy my wife her own personnel camera, before posting any procedure to strip my reel ...>_<...
