Daiwa Pixilla???

Post by trav » Sat Jun 24, 2023 6:34 pm

Anyone have a Daiwa Pixilla with a clicking drag star mod that can help me out. I’m trying to assemble mine, by memory from 12 years ago, and the issue I’m having is the handle will not turn once the drag is tightened.

Can someone share with me the washer stack up of the handle, from the anti-reverse bearing out to the handle?

I have 3 and all 3 have different washer thicknesses after the drag star clicker and 2 spring washers. Also, if you're using the carbontex drag stack kit, be sure the last drag stack washer that the one way bearing collar contacts is a thin washer. If not, it'll bind once you get it together.

I think that’s the issue I’m having. I didn’t add a washer on the inside of the reel. Thank you!
