While doing some lubing/cleaning to two of my reels I managed to lose a couple of parts. The first is the tension knob spring. Without this the spool tensioner doesn't stay tight, and can easily produce the largest dragon's nest you've ever seen in real life. The second is just the tiny spring that locks in the bearing on the inner side plate. I think the total cost to make both of these parts is probably $.02. I'm sure they're for sale somewhere online for like $20.

Please let me know if you know of any good websites. I've struck out looking for it, similarly to Aaron Judge in the World Series.

Thanks in advance guys!

Would help if you included what make/model reel you're needing these parts for

Dang, you sure are right about that. That's my bad. It's for a KVD Smoke S3 reel.

Look up Dad's ol tackle, I'm a Shimano guy and he has things that others do not carry. He even has things that he doesn't list, which are in his repair parts.

Find a reel schematic and then give him a call, or look online at his website.
