Reel Bearings - 02/05/21 01:44 AM
I’m sure this a stupid question, but there’s way too many to pick from.
I have 3 old Abu Garcia BM3600’s (3 x 10 x 4) that I want to replace the bearings in. They say they have 3 bearings total, with 2 being spool bearings. Do I just need to replace the spool bearings and not the third, where ever it is?
And I’m not particularly fond of the noise that the ceramics (like bocas) make, I don’t need expensive bearings either, but what’s a “good enough” brand for reels that I rarely use? The factory ones look like they are $15ea, which seems crazy to me.
