Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and love it! I have a great old Penn 714Z spinner that my Dad gave me years ago and would like to get it back in working order!! First off when I took it apart 3 years ago, it was working properly, but not now!! :'( For some reason I am having trouble with the bail mechanism as I know I did not put it back together correctly! :'( :'( :'(
Anyone have a tortital on this Penn reels bail mechanism! ;D ;D ;D
welcome! i'm not a spinner guy and tried like crazy to keep this a no-spin zone, but the guys had other ideas. hopefully one of the spinner guys will chime in. ;D
Try mysticparts.com I used their drawing when I did a 710Z in December. They have parts also.

Hello Bonecracker, welcome. I'm hoping you didn't crack anyone's bones ;D
these reels are pretty easy to service, try this:

since it is the bail that you're looking for, try this one as well:

These are different models, but the layout is similar.
Good luck!

Bonecracker, if you can't figure it out post a pic of your bail and I'm sure we can help. Bob
