The reel does have a roller clutch bearing, which does not show on the Schematic. You should see yours in the handle side, side plate.

If you need a new one ask the Boss for the link to a stainless one he recommends. Also cheaper than buying from Shimano.

Cheers,

Terry.

a good source for stainless steel AR bearings has been a bit elusive.   i'm not sure if smoothdrag.com has them.  i know boca had some that they said were all stainless, but they were actually not stamped as such.  if you measure the dimensions (id x od x ht) then there should be something available.  if you need help finding one, holler!
