Title: Newell 300 Series Generation 2 Aluminum Side Plate Kits
Post by: Bryan Young on September 15, 2019, 02:00:05 AM
Well, it's been a while since we were able to produce these kits again.  There was a minor improvement in the jack shift lever area like the 400 series, but overall, they are of the same design and Gen1.

https://alantani.com/index.php?topic=17264.0 (https://alantani.com/index.php?topic=17264.0)

The 20 kits are available in each of the 5 colors, black, silver, purple, ice blue and green.

The kit will include:
    Two adjustable bearing cups
    Two Viton O-rings.
    Two ABEC-5 bearings
    Clicker spring and two Allen clicker spring screws
    Clicker button, Teflon side plate guard, clicker dog, and retaining c-clip
    Four stainless steel Allen head bridge screws
    12 stainless steel Allen head frame screws
    Three sizes of Allen Wrenches, 5/64", 3/32", and 7/64" to assemble your reel

Please note that there are a few kits that will include hardware kits that looks like below.  The difference is that you will noticed that there is a small screw included with the Allen wrenches.  This is the clicker spring screw that was missed, so please be careful when opening the hardware bags so you don't misplace this extra screen.

Available on eBay via my retailer.

If you have any question, please post them here or send me a PM.

Thank you for your interests.

Please note that when assembling, use a good marine grease on all screws, bearing up threads, and where there's metal to metal contact to prevent corrosion.

Hi Jim, 300 series Newell reels.

Does that include the Blackies?
Title: Re: Newell 300 Series Generation 2 Aluminum Side Plate Kits
Post by: Bryan Young on September 17, 2019, 10:05:04 PM
Hi Jim,

It will fit the blackie bridge but you will need a later free spool shift lever.  I have asked Cortex Conversion to machine some out of one piece stock of stainless steel and for the blackie users and its on his schedule.  Not sure of the time frame as of yet.  Sorry.

If you can find a free spool shift lever from the P-series to S-series, then all you need to do is replace the shift lever and you will be able to use these side plate kits.

If they're machined like the 400 series kits, they're going to be awesome. I'll be putting the check in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks, Bryan.

They are machined by Cortez Conversions for me.  They are awesome and precision made to tight tolerances.

Hello Bryan,

I just sent you a PM about side plates and tuning my custom Newell 332 & 533.
I'd like red side plates for both if possible please.
If not, black would be fine too.
Please respond to my PM and let me know what next steps should be.
Thanks!

I bought a set of plates to add another in 332 size. I used a bridge from a 440 no letter so I'd have 2 dogs with an 8 tooth gear sleeve so they would alternate.I attached a metal washer to the gear sleeve ( Newell nut method)so could use Bryan's 5+1 drag kit  I used a graphite spool for good free spool. Bryan's kits are very well made, no real tweeking needed
Looking forward to getting it wet!!

Nice job!

Sadly, my plates and narrow kit are still sitting on the shelf waiting to be assembled. Still looking for that right priced 300 series to start the build.

Hi Stephen,

I'll have to look into my personal inventory if I have any left. I reserved one of each color for my own builds, but am willing to sell them if they are not build already.

We, or should I say, Tom is at the final stages. I have to drop off different generations of the 500 series reels for the last figment check before production begins. Likely to drop off the reels next week.
