How to Upgrade Your Factory Bearings in Your Baitcaster

In this tutorial, I show you how upgrade the factory bearings in your baitcaster to high spool speed bearings. The question is, does it make a difference? Well, stay tuned because I do a fairly simple test comparing the two. This is a very simple project that should only take about 10 minutes or so, the tools I used included a small screw driver, needle nose pliers and reel oil.

Very informative, I will have to try switching out my bearings sometime.

[@RickWeiner13]

You read my mind. Was about to look this up lol thanks dude!

[@Saltyscales]

You are welcome

[@aak099]

Just curious. For reels with bearing at the spool tension knob, do we need to change that too? Quite positive about this Phantom X that I've placed an order, instead of getting my usual Abu Revo Winch.

They call that the crap clip.....when it flies off you go "oh crap!" Nice tutorial. Thanks!

[@Saltyscales]

Yea, we have a bunch of those lol
