I've seen references to hop up parts for reels, and I see R-R did up a couple of his reels recently. I was wondering where are good sources for these parts. I don't need fancy "bling" parts, just real good functioning parts. Specifically, if you read my TD-Sol review, you'll know I'm in the market for a new handle for it. TIA.

Daiwa sells everything you need. You just need to go to your parts list (schematic) that came with the reels and you can order direct from them.  When you order, make sure you get all you need because the shipping is pretty hefty.    If you need bearing upgrades Boca Bearings, VXB Bearings, TG Rocket bearings, and ZPI Bearings.  Drag upgrades I would suggest Smoothies or Carbontex.  Just do a search for each on Google.
