Hopefully, someone on our site can help with the (2) 7000 pinions.

Am not at the shop currently -- went back to Denver for a quick solo trip to pick up a travel trailer.  Decided to make a slow trip of it back West.  Instead of going back on I-70 across the passes at over 11,000 ft. -- went North to I-80 -- then will wing it back Westerly.  Currently in Cheyenne, Wyoming -- just under 1,200 miles from home this morning.

Will check parts when I return in a few days --

Best Regards & Welcome!

Fred

Where are you located.
ABU is owned by Pure Fishing. Contact them for parts although their delivery time is pretty slow due to covid (Okuma and Daiwa are bad too)
Check the repair depots in your area and see what they have in their stock.

I am here in Georgia
Abu considers them Obsolete
My go to guy has none.. :(
Hoping someone here feels sorry for a 7000
Surfcaster, I know they are out here I just have
not made the connection.
I custom build all of them for myself and these two
are my last CT frames, everything is so hard to get
as far as parts go. I am glad I am old I just want a few more good years
of fishing. These reels are an Era gone by, Thanks John

When I face that issue I go on line and start phoning around to all the repair depots across the country and ask if they have any in their shop. Every now and then I luck in.
Good luck.
And as mentioned, there's always e-bay.
