Bronson made Reelezy Disassembly

Post by stidog »

How does one disassemble the Reelezy equivalent to a Bronson Modern 500? I finally found one with the level wind intact and the abl bail. Now how do I get to it??? Thanks for the help.

You mean beyond unscrewing the face plate?

The early models had the pawl held in by a small retaining ring, I believe? I don't have one here right now to look at, though.

The paw on it didn't have anything it was floating loose, the abl bail is great. I have like 3 Modern's but none with the level wind. Seems Robert was right, fisherman didn't like that fancy contraption back in the day.
