The pinion gear used to be solid brass the new ones are a 2 pc alloy that sometimes seperate..
I have used mine for some locked drag fishin an have had no problems wit it.i winched back a 30 lb fish in a good current wit no place to go sideways..But when I found out about the gear i retired the reel.No room for error in my fishin tackle.Next trip to mass I will bother Mike for the part...Maybee bring some old sideplates so he can do the swapout thing for me...He He He .
