before you buy them, i would recommend getting a bottle of "xtreme reel +."  add a drop to each stock penn bushing, as well as a couple of drops to the inside of the pinion gear and the spool shaft.  give the reel a spin and then decide if you need new bushing.  i think you will find that your stock reel will spin just fine.  yeah, this new lube is THAT good!  please let me know how it works out.  thanks!  alan
