Lews 95Mm Carbon Fiber Handle

[21farms]

So if I buy this lews CF handle and use it on my LH Daiwa could I use the stock Daiwa handle nut? I was actually looking for a longer CF handle for my T3. Glad I saw this post.

good info provided by rippin-lips but let me expound on it a bit. it's really going to depend on which version of the lew's 95mm carbon handle you receive, the old or the new. if you're lucky enough to get the older one, you can just use your stock T3 closed handle nut. if you get the newer version with the "beauty cap" (as rippin-lips calls it), then you with either have to source a left-handed open handle nut or get a covered handle nut, handle nut retainer and handle nut retainer screw.

Ok I just called and spoke with Lews just to clear some things up for anyone interested, and myself. The handle assembly is $50 shipped. They are already pre packaged and ready to go. It's 100% complete. You get the handle with knobs,handle nut,nut retainer, and screw. So it's a 1 and done deal. Everything you would need comes with it. Just have to tell them right or left hand so you get the correct handle nut. The part # is CFH95B and just say left or right hand when ordering. It's the same assembly as on a tournament pro. She said they all are the same kit and their is no new or old version. Hope that helps someone out. Also for anyone interested. If you don't like the Lews paddle grips,abu and bps knobs will fit on it.

there are two versions...here's what's currently shown on the lew's website and the ones currently sold on ebay:

 

 

 

and here's my last unopened package:

kind of hard to tell but that's a separate covered handle nut (with gold trim around the top), handle nut retainer and handle nut retainer screw. the packaging is different as well.

Yeah it has a cap like the speed spool and the other is like the tournament pros. Well the one she went and checked was the older version. So I guess just try and specify which one you would want.
