Its too bad you don't have Shimano reels, they have an outstanding service dept. up in Irvine. I dropped off 3 of my reels there and depending on the reel was charged $25 for my Baitcaster 4500 and TLC and $35 for my Calcutta.
They shipped them back in a week with the note that the Baitcaster was beyond repair so they charged me an additional $25 and gave me a brand new reel. All the reels got a complete overhaul, new bearings, friction plates, etc.
Great company.
