Hey guys....First post but what an awsome forum.
I got two abu's from my grandfather who recently past away. I wanted to get them back to working order but cant find the proper schematic.
The reel seats have the following numbers:
5500C has 856400
5000 has 850100
I found schematics for a 1984 but not the 85?
The schematics i found was for the 5000 and it says 84-2
No help on the schematics but I've been trying to figure out how to upgrade a mid 70s vintage 5000c, so far no luck. They aren't too complicated but I'd put the older reels on the shelf.
you checked here already?

Yea, I have taken them apart and from what I can tell the 84 model schematics seem to work for the 85. I just wanted to amke sure they were the same. Thanks!
