I have a quite a few more Speedmasters to go through and have found everyone needs a new driveshaft bearing. I had 12 of them and used all of them and I have 17 more of these reels.
Shimano part number is 483 and shimano does not list the bearing, just the spool bearings. I found a Boca bearing that matches the size 8x16x5 mm.
Are these bearings ok to substitute?

Thanks,

Butch

As long as they are stainless steel. Yes.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Thanks,

I spent an hour here last night reading up on some of the information here. Learned a lot.
