Thanks. My mom is not doing well and your video was able to take my mind off of things for an hour this morning. Nice job! 👍

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for watching, Steve.... Sorry to hear about your mom.... please give her my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Nice job for a complicated reel. Thanks!

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks Jimmy. If I made it look difficult, I apologize! Lol More vids to come, as always. Stay tuned.

Freakin' awesome video! Thank you! I've been afraid to take my reels apart, but now I have a little more confidence.

[@TSGReelService]

Glad to hear it! Good luck with your reel. More vids to come! Spread the word about the channel.

Great video, very easy to watch

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Spread the word about the channel.

[@danielleanos9559]

if you ever get a Saltiga LD 40 2 Speed to service I would be very interested in watching and learning. Thank you for this!

[@TSGReelService]

Sounds good. Thanks for checking out the video. Spread the word about the channel.

[@JeffreySmith-m3y]

Have the Saltigas but this looks nice.

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for checking out the video. They're both good (and close to the same).... especially if you maintain them. Will do a video of the Saltiga the next time I get one in. Spread the word about the channel.

Thanks for the upload, I plan to do this service on my reel soon. Just wondering, when you cut the video and cleaned the real, what was the process like? Do you have another video on your page that might show that?

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for checking out the video. No, sorry, but if those things interest you, see tonight's video.... it goes into a little bit of detail. I usually cut the video because it's monotonous and/or I'm using an ultrasonic cleaner that I don't show on camera. You can also check the video description for things I use in the cleaning process.

[@ASHEHADEH2]

@@TSGReelService I'll definitely check it out, thanks for the quick reply!

@@ASHEHADEH2 No worries. Hope it helped.

hello good morning friend a question is the antireverse for the penn riva lw15 the same as the rival lw30? thanks for your answer 👍

[@TSGReelService]

Hi, yes

[@deathcar]

Question, I just replaced a frozen left side spool bearing on a ld 30, all other bearings seemed smooth as new except the one. Upon reassymbly and adjusting the preset it seems to be getting good free spool tipped up on the left side, but when I turn it handle side down it immediately slows down. Could this possibly be an issue with the preset not being installed correctly? also not getting as good of drag as I'd like with preset at good freespool/drag setting.

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for checking out the video. The spool slowing down when turned to the right is common on many conventionals.... it's a sleeve issue and not a concern if it works well when horizontal. The drag issue could be similar to the TLD's.... sometimes you put everything back properly, but the drag doesn't function properly.... you have to "pop" it forward and backward a few times... usually works ... or take the lever assy apart and reassemble.

@@TSGReelService Hey, thanks for getting back to me, the issue was solved, and may be something you would be interested in. This is the second small 2 speed reel that I have recently worked on that had bad spool bearings, completely frozen, but not corroded. As I understand it, these bearings are being crushed by being left in full strike and not backed off after use. This puts incredible pressure on the spool bearings and assembly. On this particular Daiwa that I was having the problem there was slop in the spool at proper preset, and the freespool would drag while tipped on the handle side. It was like there was a washer missing, but there wasn't. What it turned out being was the "drag spring washers" the 4 washer stack(+1) that the left spool bearing rest on (spool shaft)were completely crushed flat. This was causing the slop in the spool and dragging on the right side tip. I was able to reshape them with some careful pressing and hammering and the reel free spooled properly after that. Definitely an odd one. Thanks again for your response.

[@TSGReelService]

You're welcome and no worries. There is quite a bit of lateral force being applied to these spool bearings.... I think I talk about it in my Avet video.... whether you leave it engaged or not. The tension washers being flattened makes sense, but I would just purchase new ones to replace them if I were you. It gives you two assurances: 1) that it was indeed the washers causing the issue, and, 2) their shape is pretty exact and difficult to manually reshape correctly. Thanks for detailing what you encountered.

Hi I'm having problems with my daiwa ld 30 H I've watched your video flooded all the steps but my anti reverse is still not working any ideas on what I can do

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for checking out the video. Keep trying or take it to your local repair shop for help.

[@shaunstephensen5234]

@@TSGReelService do you think it may be the bearing , everything else looks fine

[@arid5127]

Great video! I have a question. I recently serviced my Shimano talica. Cleaned and regreased all the gears. I watched your video from a few months back. However, whenever I reel, there is a slight noise coming from the reel. It sounds like it’s coming from the clicker side. It’s a slight whine, which it never had before I serviced it. Any recommendations?

[@TSGReelService]

Thanks for checking out the video. Did you remove the clicker?

[@arid5127]

@@TSGReelService I did not. I thought it might’ve been a lack of grease on the gears. But I did some experimenting and put extra grease but the sound still persisted. I thought I might’ve damaged the anti-reverse spring so I ordered a replacement but it still has the same sound. I’m thinking that I didn’t grease something correctly.

[@arid5127]

@@TSGReelService but I followed your videos and I know you do great work so I must’ve done something wrong but I’m not sure what it is.

[@TSGReelService]

It sounds like a clicker assy issue, but if you've never touched it, maybe you should just use the video to do the rebuild all over again, or just take it to your local repair shop. If you are comfortable doing it, and choose to do it yourself, don't skimp.... do the rebuild.

[@arid5127]

@@TSGReelService alright, I will give it a try and post an update!
