Does anyone know how to get the roller bearing out of the handle side plate of the Pro Qualifier baitcaster? Ever since I dunked this reel it has been grinding, upon disassembly its this bearing that is making the noise, but I can't seem to be able to get it out of the side plate.

I've tried pushing it from the outside with a 10mm socket but its not budging.

Thank

    The roller is press fit if it doesn't come out with finger pressure. Spray and soak with Simple Green etc. and rinse with hot running water. Repeat as necessary. Relube with a swab of light oil. If the bearing is bad, you'll need a new side plate from BPS.

    Well that stinks. I'll try to clean it out in the faceplate. Thanks for the answer!
