Title: Ambassadeur 550 plus
Post by: SwitcheS12 on October 25, 2018, 04:24:25 PM
I'm cleaning my father in laws reel and the reel seat is broke. I need to order a replacement frame.  Well the frame says 01 04 04. So I got on ereplacementparts.com and I don't see that model..which frame do I need to get?

Switch, try part number 802252.

The 01 04 04 dates which version the reel is.

Trouble is, the stand and posts are pressed into the side rings so you have to buy the whole frame.  For about the same price, you can buy the whole reel used.

Or maybe even a new Ambassador for the price of the frame. Check out Fisherman Factory Outlet, www.ffo-tackle.com. They typically have very good deals on recently discontinued models.
