AKRISONER Posted August 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 well i posted the question to my instagram and got my answer. Its the plastic piece from within the rubber housing of the reel. Of course this is not listed on the schematic at all. Does anyone know if there is a place to get these kind of parts. It makes it even more difficult to get a part when theres no associated parts number for it...or further more what the part is actually called. any ideas im all ears! Im not sure how that plastic piece went missing but it sucks that its gone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Well I have a few old and yes, old reels. Guess what the drag disk is made of ? FELT Yup, just felt. May or may not be fancy , but I would say cut a piece and see it that works. It worked then, why not now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked then, why not now ? the problem is that i cant assemble that housing because the plastic piece that holds the spring is missing. Thats the part that holds it together and why I cant get my reel back together. Interestingly there were felt drag disks within the housing as well when i took it apart.

Now if AK lost the 4 sided expansion clip, you can buy stainless wire that's pretty springy and easy to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
