Product Description
Transform Your Abu Ambassadeur 4000-6600 into a Casting Machine with the Dual Bearing Worm Kit!
Is your trusty Abu Garcia reel starting to feel a little rough around the edges? Give it the ultimate performance boost with the Abu Dual Bearing Worm Kit, available only at Mike's Reel Repair. This meticulously engineered upgrade completely modernizes your levelwind system, delivering a level of smoothness and casting performance you never thought possible.
The secret lies in the dual ball bearing support for the worm shaft. Unlike the stock plastic bushings, our kit utilizes precision ball bearings at both ends, allowing the worm shaft to glide effortlessly. The result? Significantly farther casts, smoother retrieves, and a levelwind system that feels like it's moving on silk.
We haven't stopped there. The kit also includes a black anodized aluminum body for enhanced durability and a Titanium Line Guide that can handle the rigors of both braided and monofilament lines. Say goodbye to premature wear and hello to years of reliable performance.
For the ultimate in smoothness and wear resistance, you can even choose to upgrade to our optional CERAMIC line guide pawl. Anglers who have tried it rave about the incredibly fluid feel and the increased lifespan, even in harsh, sandy conditions.
Why Choose the Abu Dual Bearing Worm Kit?

Big difference for casting
Installed this kit with the ceramic pawl in my 5600 Abu. Fit is spot on and installation was a breeze. First cast I noticed a big difference in distance. BIG difference. Well worth the money!

Awesome little upgrade
I have installed the upgrade kit from Mike's on all my reels. This worm bearing does smooth things up. I put it on an old Royal Express II, 6600C4, 5500C3 and I could tell a difference immediately in my casting I probably gained a good 20 feet per cast if I really pushed it (on the royal express). So all my reels are now C5s or C6s (depending on instant anti reverse bearing). I have he worm gear upgrade, idler bearing upgrade and ceramic spool bearings and ceramic pawl upgrades on all of them and they all feel like a new type reel (probably an extra $40-60/reel). I have to be careful on my hard cast and I had to leave the brakes on all of them bcs they are so smooth now I over spin easily if I am not thumbing it judiciously. I don't know if it was all worth it but it was fun and my reels are smoking now. Anyway the worm gear kit is the best of the upgrades bcs it helps with the cast tremendously.

Great Product.... Just slow Processing Time/Shipping
Loved the product. Really smoothed things up. Especially with the added bearing which is a carrier bearing.... not a ball bearing for those who are wondering. IT TAKES AWHILE TO GET stuff usually, worth the wait but do not expect to get this in a week.... probably close to 3 or 4 after you order. I will probably add this to all my reels eventually.

This is a pretty great upgrade
This is a pretty great upgrade, but wanted to write a tip for those with newer abus. My C3 came stock with one bearing in the level wind at the skinny end of the worm gear. If you have one like this you might want to look into getting only the worm gear in this kit plus the ceramic pawl (if you're in to that). You won't actually need the other bearing in the kit and the stock line guide and worm shaft on the reel work just fine so you won't need those either. I even kept the stock line guide on my reel because it is much lighter in weight and seems to perform better. Can't say anything about upgrading the older abus. Also a shout out to Melanie in customer service and whoever else helped on my order for being awesome. If interested, you should look into getting a 6500 series side plate and clicker plate to add a bait clicker to your 4600 or 5500 series Originally posted March 29, 2015

A++++
I have installed this bearing worm kit on several reels 5600c the older 80 model and a few other reel updates from Mikes and the reels I have redone are unbelieveable smooth and fast. I prefer them over the new Revo I got for Christmas last year. A++++ Originally posted Oct4, 2009
