It is ! The Problem with the reel is that well, "its old" Ha Ha , In side there is a coil spring That I removed< The spool has a tit that fits into a hole in a gear . That gears teeth do the clicking. With me so far! Well anyway I removed the spring because it only served to keep the tit from staying in the hole it was desinged to fit into so by removing the spring the tit is able go into the hole on the gear but there is a small bit of extra space between the two and the spring only adds to that problem so I think I need a spacer pushing the spool towards the gear not away like the spring does Way to hard to explain in writing Maybe that guy from Sweeneys whats his name ashton ? maybe he can figure it out Hey Allistier Whats up !!!! <@(())>< Long time no see . Good to hear from you Give Me A call sometime 707 294-4738
