Title: Newell Dogs and Dog Springs
Post by: codisking on May 28, 2015, 06:24:11 PM
Is there anyone on this site who sells these parts, or is eBay the only game in town?

Just make sure you get the correct dogs for your reels. The blackies, original P's and some early G's use angled cut ss dogs; these series all use the Newell 4 stack drag system. The G's, NL's, C's, S series and the Millenium P's use the rounded ss dogs; these series all use the Newell 3 stack drag system..

I'm looking to replace a "LEFT" hand dog spring from a L220 on the workbench. These springs were wound a different direction than the standard RH dog springs and apply pressure from the underside of the dog into the gear sleeve cog.   Anyone ever replaced one of these ? if so where did you find it.. and/ or fabricate it ?

Thanks !

I'm not sure where to buy springs for the Newell reels other than eBay. I have found spring manufacturers online however, and I was thinking of seeing if we could have some made, if need be.
