The real looks fantastic. I wish I had the confidence to pull a real apart to service it let alone what you did.

Total respect for your work.

As long as you logically lay it out when you disassemble it there shouldn't be any issues, its not like a car engine that requires specific torque settings or special tools. Just work in a left to right - top to bottom with disassembly and lay it out as it comes out in that fashion and you'll do well.

Just watch those needle bearings in the Anti Reverse - if they're worn they have a tenancy to fall out - hence the paper rolled up in them...

Taking a few photos while you're pulling your reel apart can be a big help as well.

good idea, thats especially when it comes to those shims on the drive gear, usually two or more on the left hand side of the drive - pays to count and write it down.

Also be careful when stripping down outside as the wind can blow these shims away they're that light!
