slinkymalinky Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 If you can get one, it will be from the distributors. Send an e-mail to Pure Fishing... info@purefishing.com.au They are incredibly helpful and have an excellent service and parts department. Being an older model, I'm not sure of availablity... some brands, like ABU or PENN have parts available for reels that are 30 years old... others discontinue parts waaaay too regularly. If the part is available, they're the best ones to sort you out. If they can't get them you can try Mike's Reel Repair in Canada. They're the guys who have schematics on line (although they don't have the catera). I checked their parts list and they do have it listed BUT getting parts from them can take months and months. Have a look here By the way, if possible don't just get a drive gear... if ever you have to replace the drive or pinion gear in a reel you should do both together so you get a matched set and because when one of them is damaged, it will almost certainly have damaged the other.

Bruce the Postie Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 G'day Pappy 1, Having just got back from a quick visit to see my mate at the Pure Fishing warehouse,i was going to suggest that if they have'nt got what you need in their huge range of spares,then you might have to look at a new reel. But i see that everything has worked out in your favour,gotta be happy with that! Cheers, Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
