Title: Bearing Cup Washers
Post by: Newell Nut on February 26, 2016, 10:21:51 PM
Newell owners that need to help adjusting the spool with a shim in the bearing cup or between the bearing cap in some cases and the bearing then this is what you need.

Thanks Jerry, I did not need any for my personal reels but I had a friend here the other day with a need so I posted so everybody could see where to get them.

  You can also look up bearing shims, I use 3 or 4 different thickness washers, they have them from .005 up to .030 I believe.
