DanQS13 Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Can someone please tell me where the hell I can find a knob for a Pflueger spinning reel. Quote
DanQS13 Posted October 28, 2017 Author Posted October 28, 2017 Lol guess that's a no This is what I get for trying something new instead of sticking with my Daiwas Quote
DanQS13 Posted October 28, 2017 Author Posted October 28, 2017 Ok so I finally found my calipers and took some measurements. Turns out the Pflueger isn't a 5mm shaft like I've seen in other posts when doing some searching. The one I have is using 4x7x2.5 bearings like most other reels. The issue I guess I'm going to have is the shaft length on the Pflueger is super short. ABU guys, is the shaft on those reels much shorter than shimano and daiwa shafts? If so can someone give me a measurement of the shaft. If I can cross reference the length with a Abu that might get me closer to finding knobs that will work on this thing. Getting closer to selling this thing and getting another Stradic or Aegis, lol. Quote

DanQS13 Posted October 29, 2017 Author Posted October 29, 2017 I strongly dislike the fat foam knob on it... it's the Supreme XT. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Pflueger_Supreme_XT_Spinning_Reel/descpage-PXT.html If I knew what brands would even be a whole handle replacement that would give me more knob options I would even do that.

FrankN209 Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Was you able to take this knob off? I have the same reel and wasn't able to unscrew the orange plate. I ended up cutting it off. I ordered the wooden knob off of the President Limited Edition, it fits perfect. Quote

Ya I got it off with a pair of pliers, they locktite it with about 1/2 a tube apparently. The wooden one is the same as the knob one is shape and size so that definitely isn't what I'm looking for. 22 hours ago, tander said: Maybe you can find something here: https://www.ereplacementparts.com/pflueger-parts-c-186372.html It's only stock parts which isn't what I want.
