You will need the spool pin pliers though

You can just change the 2 end spool bearings I did an old Shimano Citica first changed toe 2 end bearings went out and made 10 casts then I changed the one on the spool shaft and made 10 casts there was no difference between changing 2 or changing 3. Also if you don't mind a slight noise get them unlubed and don't put any oil on them. I did this on a Shimano Scorpion and fished with it for about a year sold it to a friend 3 years ago and just changed them out month ago.

I prefer the lube dry bearings also but I put a drop of Rocket Fuel in each bearing before I put it on the spool.
