luxor 300

Recommended Posts

Hey, I just picked up a luxor 300, and I'm planning on doing some modifications to it, and I had a few questions, are there any drag washers that will fit it without modification, is there an existing line roller upgrade, is a there a see led bering that will fit, and how do I remove the main gear from the sideplate,

Thanks and I'll put up some pictures as I go

Yo - fishfinder401 - it’s either a CrAck 300 or a LuXor A, B or C, tho supposedly there was a CrAck w/no code designation (never seen one).

 

Anyway - 'smoothdrag’ has carbontex washers, tho’ only in 1/32" thickness you have to double-up on the under-spool washers + you might also try scott’s bait & tackle for some of the 704 & 706 teflon.

 

Don’t think there is a line roller upgrade, tho never have had any problems, as long as it’s not grooved & it turns freely.

 

The original The Surfcaster, had sealed bearings as part of their retrofit package & 2 of my reels have such. I’ve been looking, but nothing to date - if you find any let me know.

 

Am attaching a pic of one of my The Surfcaster reels, a Luxor B, drainage holes in rotor cup, bail removed, hole epoxied & slightly filed smooth (do not remove line roller spring, if you have such), bail stop on rotor cup filed away

Not sure which gear you mean - but here’s a schematic - seems like it’s the Bevel Gear (#16C, if you can read this not so good scan), it’s removeable by unscrewing the complete handle assembly.1871107

 

PS: I found my original Crack 300 schematic & I’ll try to get a good scan a bit later ...

 

PPS: Take care of the 3 cover screws, the slots damage easily !!!

Morone Saxatilis... God put them in the Surf to take them, not in the freaking boat!
