Steez A and Megabass IS Bearing Size

Post by Aquaftm45 » Tue Dec 11, 2018 8:41 pm

Does anyone know spool and sideplate bearing size for these 2 reels.

I believe they are both 1150 and 1030, but wanted to make sure.

You are correct. Both reels take a 3x10x4 in the sideplate and a 5x11x4 on the spool

Yep the stock bearings are very good once flushed out . they tend to be over lubed from factory. I remove a shield flush out bearing with acetone and then treat with TSI-321 and have found no need to upgrade bearings since doing this.
