Hey guys, brand new on the forum so hopefully this question is in the right section. Just got a used Shimano Stella online and am having one issue with it. The previous owner used it as a right hand retrieve and it works as it should. I went to put it on the left side and it just won’t seem to catch so I can thread it on. After observation, I did notice a difference when comparing the left port to the right one. I will include pictures below, but the left side almost looks like it’s missing a washer or something of some sort. There are tiny little specs showing that look like maybe bearings? When inspecting the right side, which it threads onto no problem, those little bearings are not visible. Am I missing a piece maybe on the left side? Any help is greatly appreciated. I really dont want to use it as a right hand retrieve and don’t want to get rid of it either. It’s a beautiful reel.
