I sucked it up and ripped it out. Finger was mangled & bloody but the bad thing was the level wind no longer works. What part is probably striped or broke? I've put off fixing it myself and use my older 400.

you dont need no stinkin level wind, get the topless 400 and you will never have that problem again
