Title: Abu Garcia Blackmax
Post by: bus kid on November 27, 2011, 12:09:48 AM
So after a season of fresh and saltwater bass fishing my Blackmax needed a rebuild.

after dis-assembly I wiped off all the old lubricants pulled all the bearings an into the ultrasonic cleaner they went. I removed the grease and shields from the spool bearings.Out came the old drags and in goes a new set of #34 Carbontex,greased with Cals. I polished the the drag plate and the gear then re-stacked it all back together. reel x on all the bearings.
