Post by scorpio75m » Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:29 am

Hi... my reel is Steez A II TW 1000XHL Left Gear Ratio: 8.5:1. Can i change the gear to 1000L Left Gear Ratio: 6.3:1?

I think the Steez A HLC 6.3L gears would work.

Yes, the Steez A2 6.3 gear set drops right in.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Haha...yeah, I should have realized that there is a 6.3:1 Steez A II model.

100% confirm can use steez a2 6.3 gear? So i only need to order Pinion + drive gear set? How about worm shaft/gear?

Correct. You only need the main gear and pinion gear, nothing else. The drag washers will swap from the old gear set to the new gear set.
