My first reel(s) overhaul....

went flawlessly thanks to Alan Tani's tutorial..His thread located here: http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=42.0 made it a no-brainer.
I'll also confirm what many have already said: "The Daiwa Sealine's are super easy to work on." I've never done this before on any reel and was able to clean, oil, grease and throw all new bearings, o-rings and drags in two reels in about an hour. I'M PUMPED!
