anyone know the drive shaft bearing( pastic bushing) size on a citica 100dsv its also the same as a curado 100d instead of the plastic one its a metal bearing .. thks in advance ..

I did a quick search for part number BNT2143 and the searches turned up several hits showing the same size as 5X8X2.5mm.

I hope this is the correct size! Numerous search hits all match.

thks have a great evening

Most bushings are standard bearing sizes - some sizes are a tougher find than others.

Two weeks ago, let my buddy borrow my Tsunami 1102H surf rod w/ big Tica surf reel.

Twice he dunked the reel in the shallow surf. The spindle and mainshaft are all sealed, but I had a post-mortem rebuild to get the sand out of the bail-flip and line roller.

P/N 31 is an 86ZZ bushing, p/n 33 is 85ZZ ball bearing.

After ultrasonic I can't get the bushing clean enough for a free-spinning line roller - the bronze on plasma-TiN brass grinds like sandpaper.

So the good thing about it, searching for 86ZZ bushings, hen's teeth 86ZZ ball bearings popped-up in my search, shipped from Singapore with Amazon Prime free delivery - can also give my other Ticas dual-BB line roller.
