Early Run 965 Reels
The first run(s) of these reels contained a different gear setup:
| Part | Early Run | Current Reels |
|---|---|---|
| Idler Gear | 64-965 | 64M-965 |
| Worm Shaft | 42-965 | 42M-965 |
| Spool Gear Click Ratchet | 66-965 | 66M-965 |
A higher percentage of the reels will have the current design.
TO SEE WHICH TYPE YOU HAVE:
The idler gear is the most distinctive - the 64-965 was a plastic gear with an attached small brass gear, O.D. measures 1.078 inches overall. The current 64M-965 is entirely made of plastic, and O.D. measures 1.1 inches. Picture of newer idler gear below.

If you have the original plastic/brass idler gear, and need to replace ANY of the three pieces, you will need to order all three parts:
- Idler Gear 64M-965
- Worm Shaft 42M-965
- Spool Gear Click Ratchet 66M-965
