Lew's Tournament Pro Speed Spool Bearing Sizes

[Elegantly Wasted]

Does anyone happen to know the exact sizes of the bearings for the spool (spool shaft, palming side plate, and cast control) in a Lew's Tournament Pro Speed Spool reel?

 

I bought 2 of these reels last month and haven't fished them yet but after spooling them up with some line noticed one of the reels sounded a little rough. That same reel has a 2 second shorter free spool compared to the other one. At first I thought it was due to an ill-fitting palming side plate (it projected forward about 1/32") that actually made tightening the thumb screw difficult compared to the other reel. I contacted Lew's and they've sent me a new palming side plate (it's on it's way). But after taking the reel apart and thoroughly flushing the bearings and re-greasing and re-oiling everything I'm now more inclined to think it's one of the spool bearings. 

 

Lew's customer service has been great to deal with but at this point I thought I'd just order some new ABEC 5 stainless bearings from Boca to see if that fixes the issue.

You need two 3x10x4 and one 5x11x4.

Excellent! Thank you for the quick reply Brett! 

 

Just out of curiosity: where did you get those numbers? Do you have callipers that you used to measure them or were those dimensions available online somewhere?

 

Thanks again.

[Hi Salenity]

DVT should have them in stock!

I researched it a couple of months ago and found the info on a different forum. I got mine from the tackletrap.
