here is a very old post.  you could be looking at replacing all 6 bearings and the drag washer.  avet should be able to help with parts.

It's a SX not XS.  Depending on your experiance with working on reels it can be a easy reel to work on.  I've had crud keep the anti reverse dog from engaging and all it took was a simple cleaning, a few times in the deck of a pitching boat.
