I saw it on Amazon but may not work for mine, Daiwa TD2-Hi . I see many but nothing seem to work for that reel .

I measure the thread/pitch on the sidecover and try and work it out from there, some of them will have it listed in the ad.

The thread and pitch are not the problem ,most Daiwa reel using M11×0.5 . O n this reel the spool shaft stay little deep inside so we need a cap have a stick out to make contact with spool shaft . I have another cap that I tight up all the way but doesn't contact with shaft . Add round plastic so it work now , I should add a thin piece of brass to reduce fiction

I have been known to use some carbontex waste disks from punching washers to space out for missing or destroyed disks/bits.  Maybe stack/glue some disks to bridge the gap?

I keep it the same as right now to keep bearing from fell out . Order 2 of these ,I think it fit
