ON THE 5500SS REELS:
This is a kit containing the crosswind block and crosswind gear from the 550SSg Spinfisher reel, which has been tested out to work on some of the older 5500SS Spinfisher reels.
The 43-550GSP kit can be used on the two out of three older generations of the 5500SS reel. You will need to identify hour housing.The part number is stamped on housing in the 2-O'Clock position of the housing under the rotor cup. You must change out BOTH parts in order for the conversion to work.
Part number 1-5500 housing, Kit will NOT work. The housing crosswind pin is smaller then the crosswind gear hole.
Part number 1N-5500 housing, The kit will work.
part number 1P-5500 housing, The kit will work.

11/30/2024 This is the spot if you fix Penn reels. What a awesome shop. Great website. Schematics of reels on hand with available parts list. Best shop around. Since you can't walk into Penn reels in Philly anymore, this is the next best thing. Thanks for your services!!!!! Even parts for vintage reels. Delivery is super quick as well.
10/23/2024 Easy to order parts and they shipped fast. Great seller! Hope to do business with them again! If you do not find what you are looking for do a Google search with Mystic Reel Parts in the search with your model. I have a Penn 285 and 9 and it took me to the exact page for both. Also have the reel schematics.

I luckily found MysticParts via a Google search. Their website is comprehensive and I was at a loss on what I needed. Fortunately the “contact us” option was user friendly. To my delight I got a personalized and VERY helpful response right away. She asked questions to fully understand my needs and then followed up with links to the right parts. We continued our email exchange regarding my second reel issue and, again, she was extremely knowledgeable and gave me both practical as well as professional solutions.
If you need reel parts and assistance with repair and maintenance, do not hesitate to work with them.
