Traxxis Seal with Shield Replacement
Posted by Jim Wagner on 19.05. at 12:53
Hi, I have a 2013 Traxxis 55lb transom mount motor. After the first few uses it got noisy, so I removed the prop and saw that the metal ring that is part of the "seal with shield" had separated and could be slid on the shaft. I think that might be the problem. I tried to tap the metal ring back into the seal with a wide screwdriver, but on the next use it became loose again.

I'm thinking I need to replace the seal with shield and would like your opinion. If I need to replace it, can I just pull the old seal out with needlenose pliers and push the new one on or is it more complicated than that? Do I need to put any grease on it?

Thanks very much!

Jim

6500 question

Hello,

I have been looking for a Abu 6500, but all I can find other than used reels on ebay are mainly C3's with the rounded sideplate. I have even seen a few old 6500 C3s on ebay that have a flat sideplate but the clicker is still on the edge of the sideplate instead of on its face. Its rather picky but I really like the round button-like clicker on the face of the sideplate rather than the bar that you slide up and down along the edge of the sideplate.

What denotes a flat sideplate vs a rounded one on a 6500? Also is there any rule to which reels have the different types of clicker assemblies?

Thanks


Good day. Unsure of your way of description, but there is no flat plate with the line-out on the lip (thin edge) of the plate. All flatties use the click button on the side of the plate, like the older and present day 7000's.
Your ebay referral to a flat plate with the clicker on the lip is bogus. Sorry.

Your clue on flatties: All flat plates use a cast cap, the same as the one under the star on the "palming" models. This makes 2 cast caps per reel, instead of just the one.

There are 3 styles of line-out: 2 with the slider on the lip of the plate, used on palming plates, and one with the button on the side of the plate, used on flatties.

Present day flatties include the Blue Yonder, Rocket, 6500C Special, and a bunch of reels not sold in North America, for the international markets.

Mike's collection of drawings is unruly when it comes to the type of search I suggest you use. Goto Nutter Reel, click reel diagrams, click abu garcia.
Their collection is by age, and all on giant list. Saves clicking back and forth and losing your place.

Mike's setup is great when you know exactly what you want to do.
