Title: Mitchell 302 drag washers
Post by: rocksteady on April 20, 2013, 07:01:11 PM
I can't seem to find replacement washer stack for a 1960's era 302. Can anyone help ? Will drags from another company work ? The reel is in great shape. I took it apart for a good cleaning and have somehow lost the drag washer stack. Thanks ahead of time. ???

ask dawn at smoothdrag.
She knew what washers to put into my Mitchell quartz 350.

I use HT-100s.

Let me see if I have a reel around to see what washers I had used and will put a set together for you. Send me a pm with your address and I'll get those washers to you. Just send me a check after you receive them for the cost. Do you want them per greased?

I knew there was a spring of some type. I found this pic online :

So I looked through my inventory, and I do not have those metal washers and spring and stuff. I hope someone here can help.
