Newell 447/540 bars, base, and clamp...   will these fit a Penn 500 or some other Penn model?   Thank you!

The bars might be able to bolt on but I don't think the holes on a 400 series base match up with a jigmaster plate. What spool were you planning to use? 338 bars/base will bolt right onto a 500 jigmaster though, same width as stock.

I believe the 400/500 series base is the same size as penn 4/0, not sure of the fit though.

I think the 540 bars have the same hole pattern as the squidder series, if my old memory severs me correctly you could replace the bars on a 533 with bars with squidder bars, they where a direct bolt on.

Are the bearing caps on a 220 and a 322 the same?

Swami805

Yes, the bearing caps on all of them are the same as long as it's a model with one on each side. The ones with only a cap on the clicker side are different

Are Newell and Penn handles compatible?

Swami805

Sort of, it takes some filing to get a penn handle on a newell. A newell handle doesn't fit on a penn unless you tap a hole for the keeper screw. I have one newell with a shimano trinidad handle on it, took some filing though but it's nice having the offset handle.

Thanks Swami.

Btw, do you know if stock Jigmaster 500 gears will fit a Newell 332 without modification?

So... nobody can answer this?

I think that is what Bryan showed earlier. The Newell 2/3/400 reel 5:1 gears will fit a Jigmaster and Penn 4:1 gears fit a Newell. Also, I don't think the 30-99 fits any Newells. The frame that fits is the 30-66, same width but two holes. If I am wrong then tell me to shut up.

Penn 4:1 gears are Jigmaster 500 gears, right?  505/506 are 5:1.  You can put those Jigmaster 500 4:1 gears in a Newell 200/300/400?

I think there's something with the pinion gear that has to be addressed to get those gears to work. The ring maybe?
