Bearings for Abu 7000c3
 
I replaced my bearings a couple months ago with some from CC tackle. They have a little bit of blue on them, the question is do they have to be lubed out of the package. I used the reel for the second time since swapping them last night and they started to scream. Ya cant screw up putting them in. So im wondering if they need oil or maybe they are screwed up up.

shoot some carb cleaner on them and then put one drop of bearing oil on each one... thats what i do when i break mine down for cleaning.

Most likely not the bearing .
Add 1 drop of oil to the white levelwind gear pin on the palming side plate.

Thanks guys, i oiled the bearings and did a general clean up. IT seems to be working fine right now.
