Does anyone know a good place to take my Shimano Spheros spinning reels to be cleaned and lubed. I'm in the Cherry Hill area.
Shimano reel service near Cherry Hill?

I am sure there is someone closer but Tony's on Bay Ave in Manahawkin has always done a good job on mine.

I'm not sure of the name, but I think there is a pretty big shop in Bordentown on Rt 130 that is a certified Shimano repair center. Not a bad ride ride from Cherry Hill.

Harrys is a Barn Sponser. They have serviced my 3 baitrunners this fall and did a great job.
This won't help with spinning reels, but this link has great illustrations for tearing apart any of the TLD series of Shimano reels. I took the plunge this winter and tore apart all of my TLD's. Used his "wet drag" system and relubed all of the bearings. These reels work better than when I bought them new!
Last week I tore apart all of my Shimano charter specials. While I didn't have the schematics for these reels they are almost identical to the TLD's.
Each reel took me about an hour to break down, clean in an ultrasonic cleaner, repack the bearings and lube the drags.

Biggest expense was the lube at $19 an ounce and that will last me for years!
Don't be intimidated - give it a shot. What else are you going to do until you can get back to fishing?
