FishinTN Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Does anyone know which CarbonTex drags fit a BPS pro-qualifier. I called carbontex, and they didn't have a reference for it. Said they could match it if I gave them the size, but they believed it was the same as a Abu revo. Just wondering if anyone already went though this? Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 The Revo kit should be right. If you don't want to mess around measuring the stock ones, I'm sure someone with a Revo would take them off your hands. Quote
BrASSmonkey Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 I have upgraded my drag washers to carbontex, and measured the following: The Bass Pro Shops reel has 4 fabric washers. 1. On the underside of the main gear, the drag washer measures 8.0 mm (ID) x 19.7 mm (OD) x 0.7 mm (th) or 21/64" (ID) x 50/64" (OD) x 2/64" (th). 2. The other 3 drag washer are stacked on the topside of the main gear. The innermost drag washer measures 8.5 mm (ID) x 23.6 mm (OD) x 0.5 mm (th) or 21/64" (ID) x 60/64" (OD) x 1/64" (th). 3. The middle drag washer measures 8.2 mm (ID) x 24.0 mm (OD) x 0.5 mm (th) or 21/64" (ID) x 60/64" (OD) x 1/64" (th). 4. The outer drag washer measures 8.2 mm (ID) x 23.6 mm (OD) x 0.4 mm (th) or 21/64" (ID) x 60/64" (OD) x 1/64" (th). I was sent the following: Bass Pro 3 main washers: 23 mm OD 8.2 mm ID .5 mm thick Under gear: 20.55 mm OD 8.2 mm ID .5 mm thick I had to do a little trimming once I received the washers. I hope that helps! Quote

Jason Penn Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Did the STX set come with the fiber washers or just the main washers? Quote
FishinTN Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 I didn't put them in myself, just ordered them, handed them off and "presto" they were in. Contact Smoooth drags, they can tell ya. Quote
central.PA.bass Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 thinkin about upgrading the drag washers with smoooth drag for my BPS Extreme... its a little older version but do you think I will be able to use the same ones you used for your Pro Qualifier? Quote
BrASSmonkey Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 If you take apart your reel, you can measure the washers with a caliper and let Dawn at Smooth Drag know what sizes you need. Quote
FishinTN Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 Has anybody here ordered any yesterday? I ordered 2 more sets, and dawn said alot of revo kits were ordered yesterday. I thought maybe it was some of you that now know they fit they Pro-Q's. Quote
