I have an LX6/3 Raptor and want to know if an EX handle knob (just the knob, not the handle) be installed on it. If so, what parts need to be ordered from Avet? The knob itself is only $10. There's a bearing and nut set for $21 but not sure if it would be needed. Any other parts? Would like to hear from anyone who has done this mod or thought about it.

You need to purchase the complete handle and knob. Use the hxw raptor handle not the EX.

Thanks! It was already kick ####, but now it feels like a straight up mean fishing machine.
