I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Top pinion gear frozen. Bottom pinion gear broken. Main gear broken.
My reel doesn't feel right!!
Thanks to JDTreasures for the good used main and pinion gear it spins silently again.
Wow Handy...that's great looking work. Excellent Job! 8)
Strong effort Keith! ;)
Is that Vaseline in the dirty reel?
It could have been. It stunk up the whole room!!
You outta frame that first picture and put it up in your shop!

Nice work mate.
I just did a brand new FK series Stradic that got run over by a car lol.
What model was this reel and what grease is that you are using?

Good for another forty years!
I say forty plus years. Good job Keith. Dominick
The grease is Super Lube full synthetic with PTFE.
I used it in my offshore spinning reels and it's working well. I started out using it in small Ambassaduer reels and after a year they come back still clean inside.
Keith is a miracle worker! This isn't his first miracle either. ;D He has a great reputation here for good reason. Bob
