    Shimano Stella 4000FA

    I need a handle shaft for my Stella 4000FA. The Shimano part number is RD-8184. It's needed to convert the reel from left hand to right hand and one came in every box that contained a new reel. I will be happy to pay for it. Either that or I'll order one if someone knows where that might be possible. Shimano has discontinued this part (my luck). Thanks for any help!!!!

    That part is obsolete and no longer available. Dan

    Hello,

    This is my spare Shimano Stella 4000FA spinning reel that I purchased along with two other Stella 4000FA reels back in 2005-2006.



    These are all of the reel components that came with the reel minus the fantastic Neoprene reel bag which is off to the side.



    This is a closeup of the handle shaft extension that is required to convert the Stella 4000FA reel to be able to be used as a right-hand retrieve reel.



    Please let me know if this is the reel component you are seeking, and we can figure out together how to get this component to you safely and securely so you can convert your Shimano Stella 4000FA reel to right-hand retrieve. PM is the best way to reach me so please contact me at your leisure.

    Please have a great day!

    Yes Sir. That is the part I'm looking for. Do you have a FedEx or UPS store close by. I'll be glad to pay for it and pay the shipping if you are willing to sell it to me. Thank you and you have a blessed day as well.

    Sounds good to me sir! I have never used that part on any of my three Stella 4000FA reels and I'd be happy to sell it to you. Please feel free to send me a PM at your leisure with your address and PayPal payment information and I'll make the 20-mile trek into town and drop off the part at the UPS store and send you the tracking information once I get it from them.

    Please have a great day!

    I sent you a PM with the UPS Tracking Information and the nice lady at the UPS Store in town claimed it would arrive on either Tuesday or Wednesday next week!

    Enjoy using your Stella 4000FA as a right-hand retrieve reel!

    Please have a great day!
