Torium Spool Bearing Removal?
While fishing my Torium 14 this weekend, mid session it started making some ungodly noises while casting and retreiving jigs. It started just on the casts but eventually migrated to the retreive as well. Tried doing some on the spot repair, but wasn't comfortable with a complete breakdown in the middle of the night on a tailgate done by the light of a flash light. Anyway, I took it apart last ngiht and found the bearing attached to the spool was all crusty. Strange because it was clean last week when I broke the reel down for oil & greasing, but I will leave that mystery to the fishing gods. I searched around online for a way to remove this bearing from the spool shaft, but couldn't find it anywhere. Every breakdown and service description left this bearing in place. So, anyone ever remove it or have some thoughts on how it is done?
