Long awaiting Daiwa 400H/400HW/450H/450HW 5+1 Drag Kits are now available.
As you know the Daiwa 400H/400HW/450H/450HW drag system leaved a lot to be desired. Could you get 22# of drag as advertised by Daiwa. I could not. I was lucky to get 15# of drag and it was sticky especially during hard runs.
Here are the pics of my original drag set-up.


Here is the Ultimate Upgrade solution.


As you can see in the above photos, you will still need to use 2 of the original drag stack metal washer. The lower keyed washer is to ensure that the 2nd Carbontex drag washer sits above the slot in the main gear for the eared washer (See diagram below), and the last eared washer it to bring the stack height to near stock thickness.

The cost of the new drag kit is $28 shipped in the USA. International orders will incur actual shipping charges.

Thank you.
