On some older 200M reels: It has come to our attention that there was an older run of 200M reels that have the 98-60 gear sleeve on them instead of the 98-155 gear sleeve. Check the diameter of the ratchet from point to point:
98-60 = 7.5/10 in.
98-155 = 6/10 in.
At some time in the past the spindle on the bridge had a smaller diameter (0.125 or 1/8") and the sleeves had smaller holes.
