Is that you 112H 3/0 reel? Did you have any problems sliding the main gear on?

This is for my 65. Gear slips right on so do the eared washers. ???

The early sleeves were all over the place, I have a couple of those myself.  I'm guessing different machinists.
Doesn't take much for them to be off.

It's a tolerance issue. I personally never had issues with washers, but the spacer sleeve was tight on some.
This happens when you try to make custom parts too perfect...not a bad thing, but as in this case parts will need a little fine-tuning.

You may need to file down the washers or gear sleeve, unfortunately.

Would the fact that it is an older brass metal washer be the issue?

I just checked my last SS 98-60 gear sleeve. The newer SS metal washers do fit easily. The brass ones fit too but are tighter. Also make sure the securing pin is not sticking out at all.
