illinifan4152 Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 This might be a dumb question, but can i switch the gears out of my Chronarch 50e with Core Mg7 gears to make it a 7 gear ratio? Do they fit or are there a different set of gears i need to do this with? Thank you in advance? Quote

Do they fit or are there a different set of gears i need to do this with? Thank you in advance? Yep! Just did it myself. Let me find the thread and the part numbers that 21Farms gave me. Then you order straight from Shimano. Ok, you want the following parts: BNT4046 - Drive Gear BNT4050 - Pinion Gear https://fishshop.shimano.com/vip/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441848573 I upgraded both of my 50e's to these for a mere $48.80 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted April 24, 2015 Super User Posted April 24, 2015 awesome, thank you! Added the info to my first post, FYI. 1 Quote

John G Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Shimano Brenious gears will also work and they are 7.7:1 and are brass instead of aluminum. 1 Quote
illinifan4152 Posted April 24, 2015 Author Posted April 24, 2015 Will using aluminum gears from the core create problems? Quote
John G Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 Will using aluminum gears from the core create problems?No! Tackle Tour did mention in their review of the Aldebaran MG7 (same as Core 50MG7) that there might be a question in regards to long term durability of the aluminum gears in the Aldebaran MG7. I think the Core 50MG7 has the same aluminum gears as the Aldebaran MG7 but I haven't read of people having problems with the aluminum gears. Myself, I will be getting the Brenious gears because they are faster. Quote
