Title: I'm done hotrodding these two
Post by: seaeagle2 on July 15, 2012, 04:19:11 AM
One of these has a Newell narrow frame kit, the other has  Jvariance narrow frame kit.  They both have 4:1 gears, and stainless yokes, gear sleeves and dogs.  I gave up on the double dog mod for now, I've not steady enough with the dremel tool.  I got the handles off ebay from   http://stores.ebay.com/fishincomfort (http://stores.ebay.com/fishincomfort)  The Jvariance has red power pro 'cause my wife likes pink line, and she wanted a rubber knob.

Awesome additions to your arsenal.  And the wife likes to fish, too?  That's a good thing.
