TDs reels

[Slimm]

I picked up 2 team diawa s103 reels one is a 103pva and the other is 103hva. I do not know ratios, line capacity etc. Can someone tell me the difference and should I upgrade the drag and or bearings? They are both in ok working condition.

The Pva is a cranking reel 5:1 gear ratio and the Hva is 6:3:1. Both are good reels. I would just flush the original bearing and re oil them and see how they perform first. They were top of the line in their day and the drags were a good quality.

Thanks I'll oil them and give them a good once over.
