Antares ar side plate bearing

Hey Dan,

I was wondering where I can purchase side plate bearings for my metanium mg and my antares ar. Both reels are making a little strange sound when in freespool. The mg is also sounding a little grindy on the retrieve. Thanks for any advice.

Yes you can purchase the bearings from us. Find the bearings for the US counterpart reels and you can then order them from us.

Check the pinion support bearing on the Metanium. It could be rusted or just rough. If this is OK then you will need to re-lubricate the main gear. If this doesn't help then you will need to replace the main and pinion gear.
