Abu Power Handle? available where.
« on: August 19, 2004, 07:25:23 AM »
Hey all

I'm looking for a couple of Abu Power Handles (newer T style)  - curious where I can buy them and how much should I pay?

thanks!

From www.mikesreelrepair.com:
Handle : part#22031 - USD $11.40 or #21125 - USD $11.50

You can reuse you current nut and handle lock, but I would also get the lock plate #20944 ($0.83), foot screw #8907 ($0.74)  and the nut/cup #5327 ($1.18).

Total cost: USD $14.15 - still cheaper than on Cabelas ($14.99 + shipping, and other fees)

The nut/cup is better than the regular 6500 C3 handle nut, as mine got broken after 5 years ;D
