Default Maintenance on a Diawa Sealine

Does anyone know of a good source for parts for a Diawa Sealine Reel? I have a few of them that I'd like to do some maintenance on and maybe upgrade the drag with some better quality parts. Suggestions on the drag upgrade are welcomed.

Ollie Damon has Daiwa sealine parts and are very good at getting hard to find parts. I have a bunch of 50H Daiwa's along with a couple of 30H reels and they take good care of me there.

Peace, Tom

Ollie Damons is the best choice locally and yes, there are drag washer upgrades available as mentioned by Stickfish.

You can also send them to Daiwa in Cerritos Calif. and they will service them.

I would strongly recommend smoothdrag. Other popular stores have skimped out on the innermost drag washer more than once, and the smoothdrag parts are of higher quality IMO.
