Hi all,I am working on one of these that hasn't seen much care,the bearings were all seized,and after peeling them open I was able to free them up quite well.Can I put them back in with the seals removed,or should I replace them?
thanks for any tips.

spool bearings no need, the rest packed with grease and seal.

it's a $1500 reel.  i'd replace them all.   :-\

Hi guys,Alan ,I'm going with your suggestion,thanks for the advice.

Just remember to take the time to open and repack the non-spool bearings with grease. The "greased" bearing I have purchased in the past had very very little actual grease!
