Penn 525 mag bearings

[purron]

Hi All,

Ive just stripped down my 525 mag and i can only find 5 of the 6 bearings.

The ones that ive found are:
2 either end of spool
1 anti reverse roller bearing
1 bearing locked onto the gear stud
1 under the spool tension cap.

Can anybody advise where the elusive 6th is please?

Cheers,

Purron

theres a bearing in the sideplate, under the brass bullet where the spindle goes in to

The Pinion runs through a very thin bearing,if it needs replacing its a right pain to get out without breaking it.

Ah that photo makes sense, i think ill replace all of them except the thin one as ive had a little try to get it out and as you say it is a pain.

thanks for the help guys


cheers,
