Coot, thats cool. I've got 5 shimanos have had to replace drag wahers on 1 curado, thats it. Did It myself got the parts from John's in Evt. They came pre-greased ready to go in, he gave me a few tips and it was a piece of cake. Called down to Shimano in Ca. on thier toll free line got 2 storys as I talked to 2 reps. about 1/2 hr. apart. One sez ya, its a simple swap-out. Other guy sez nope, we tried that, the curado bearing is just a little too tight you got to buy a curado spool to slide into your citica!! Don't these guys work together?? Think I'll go the John's route and do it myself, he said he's got the parts in stock 2 bearings to replace 2 plastic "bushings"
