Power Handle for International 965

[pompano joe]

I've run down a lot of rabbit trails and found a lot of dead rabbits.  Anyone have a source for a power handle that will fit the Penn International 965?

Joe, theres one on ebay.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Handle-for-PENN-965-and-955-Intl-BaitCaster-with-36mm-1-42-Knob-New-/310489983218?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item484aa528f2  I'm not that keen on the aluminum handles though. You may contact fishingreel79 on ebay. He makes power handles with ss arms. Maybe he can help.
    I've been meaning to swing by and see you.

Just to give you a heads up on that handle....

I have a customer with a Penn 965 who wanted some kind of upgrade.

I ordered five of those from him.....and immediately realized that the thickness of the handle was going to cause a problem...it looked as if it wasn't going to work. But I tried it anyway...

Which resulted in me having to replace the gear stud and handle nut.....as they stripped out.

This whole deal has been a little costly for me at this point.

Proceed with caution.
