Title: Old aftco roller tip, which replacement parts kit?
Post by: Joel.B on July 15, 2015, 04:15:13 PM
My friends old fenglass is missing the roller/bearing assembly.   I see mudhole and the likes sell a replacement parts kit but they dont have any measurements for which kit I need.   

The tip says AFTCO and has a "10" stamped on it.  I'd rather just install a new roller/bearing then pull whole tip and replace.   How do I know which kit to buy?  http://www.mudhole.com/Rod-Building/AFTCO-Spare-Parts

Why not go to AFTCO?

AFTCO does not sell direct but if you have any questions call customer care at (877) 489-4278. They have been very helpful to me in the past in finding what I needed and even sending me a couple of small parts at no charge when I could not locate a dealer that had what I needed in stock.
