That reel is deceptively complicated! I wouldn't have minded a longer video where you showed removing the salt, sand, and dried grease. That can be very satisfying.
The washers you called something else are called Bellville Spring Washers The screws are T15 torque You didn’t service the bearings. The drive bearings get marine grease the spool bearings get oil Did you wipe the excess Cal’s off of the drag washer? You do not put grease in the holes. You grease the screws. You do not have to take the drive shaft apart. Spray it out with brake cleaner. Add a couple drops of CorrosionX then grease the shift button. You didn’t grease between the handle and reel before putting the handle on.
Absolutely top notch work. Do you use PB Blaster for seized screws? Don’t know how it might react with anodized aluminum. What reel grease do you use? Love watching your videos.
Thanks for watching. No, I just use corrosion x... then corrosion x with heat, but it doesn't always work well with aluminium on aluminum. You can also try banging it with a rubber mallet... only goal is to loosen the corrosion around the threading enough to back the screw out. I generally use Penn grease. Truly seized screws are rare (for the reels I service), but when it happens, it can be a bit of a nightmare.
Hi, thanks for the video. Kindly can you tell me what the plier is called that you are using to remove the bearing with. Silver with black rubber holding the two prongs together.
Enjoyed watching 2 months back... I just service mine and a friends... had one worst than this shaft jamed in the bearing... managed to save it... best penetranting oil ATF and acetone 50/50 works wonders just make sure to rinse the plastic part and apply silicone lubricant on them
@@deepbluewater7714 Wow! Glad to hear you were able to save it. Regarding the bearings, thanks for the tip.... you could also try this: ruclips.net/video/GI02FQMq9Nk/видео.html
I loved the video, but my tiagra must be older, and on the trag side there are no screws to remove the black cover. How do I take it off? (7'40" on video.
Thanks for checking out the video. Yes, there are two versions.... yours sounds like it should just be pried off with a flathead screwdriver (be gentle, but deliberate).... it has an o-ring around the black plate you're prying up. Spread the word about the channel. Hope that helps.... spread the word about the channel.
Thanks for watching. Sorry, the pullers aren't currently available. Try bending the tip of a Penn wrench to get under and pull up the bearings.... you'll have to systematically alternate and pull opposite ends up as you go. Hope that helps.
Thanks! For this one, I'm pretty sure I would have used an ultrasonic cleaner with a purple power/water mix for most of the parts. You can follow it up with an alcohol/water solution bath in the ultrasonic cleaner.... 1 part alcohol to 5 - 7 parts water mix... you don't need a lot. If you don't have that try using a penetrating oil like WD-40 to help break the crud down.
I think i put those 9 little washers on wrong that go onto the rod that goes through the spool on the clicker plate side. My reel pretty much goes into free spool when i have half drag on it. Do you put two inside of each-other with the cup side both facing the same way then put it cup to cup with two more washers facing the same way? Could you help me out?
Hi, check and follow the schematics for the numbers and orientation so there's no room for interpretation. This is a very exacting reel. If you're having difficulty, even with the schematics, stop, and take it to your local repair shop... explain to them what's going on so they have an idea where to start.
I just did a rebuild on 7 Talicas for a charter captain here in Florida. Bearing replacement is around $50 using Boca Bearings instead of Shimano. You can upgrade to ceramics for $100 per kit. I personally charge $25-$35 for the teardown and clean. Something like this reel would be about $100 in my shop with new bearings and additional for any other broken parts. Its worth it when youre talking about $700-$1000 reels.
Thanks for watching! I personally don't believe in sealed bearings, as I feel they don't work as advertised. However, I do agree that, from an optics standpoint, it would have been nice to do so, as an added argument for the price of this reel. Spread the word about the channel.

Thank you for the clear footage. One question, where can I buy new friction discs?
You're welcome and thanks for watching. You should be able to find them on eBay or ereplacementparts.
Beautiful / Excellent work !!!

Hi just wondering what the name of the pliers you used to pull the inside bearings with...?
Regards Pete

Thank you, I wil try that then. Cheers

great tutorial bro... thanks

hi, how much does this service cost?
Great video
Thanks for watching.
What type of pliers are those to pull the bearing out?
Thanks for watching! They were made by a friend of mine in California, but he's no longer currently making them.
wonderful work
Thanks and thanks for watching. More vids to come.
Also what needed to be replaced in that reel and don’t be afraid to be specific
Peruse the video.
What does a rebuild like that typically cost with parts? Thanks great video.
Thanks for watching. You can email me at tsgreelservice@gmail.com if you're interested in servicing your reel. More vids to come.

@@richardhardin191 thanks for your input and perspective. Feel free to post your shop's contact info.
Bravo!
Thanks for checking out the video. More to come.
i was under the impression that drags did not need grease like the drags for the penn 50vsw
Thanks for watching. It's not pre-greaaed. You grease or leave it dry, if you want. More vids to come.
The recommended drag grease for Tiagras is Shimano RD18322 Disc Drag Grease
Don’t worry how long it was. It’s all good

I'd be putting this is my ultrasonic.
Thanks for watching. That's where' it went.
Looks like the reel was stored on the bait tank !!
Lol! Thanks for watching!
Surprised that those were not sealed bearings.
Thanks for watching. Why?
Should just get a new reel at that piont
Thanks for watching. They chose to repair since it was cheaper than buying a new reel.
@@TSGReelService o that makes sense then considering the great work u do
🙌🍻
🙏
at 2:34 OMG
Thanks for watching! Yes, OMG.... and the left side was worse. She's like brand new again by the end of the video, though.
For a $750,00 reel I would expect sealed bearings.

Said it's running a little rough lol
These are the kinds of stories I hear when these things come in. 🤷🏽♂️
That reel looks like has been never serviced since they bought it lol

And also stored full time in the surf.
