HT100 4/0 style drags fit. I recommend taking it to Ken's in Oceanside for the 5 stack washer upgrade. It changes those three sticky drags and the thick steel washers for more HT-100 drags and thinner steel washers to retain the stock thickness of the entire stack. With this upgrade you can fish up to 60# line class on that reel.

Depending on application you can also swap out 4/0 gear ratios, from 3.25, 4.0, and 5.0 if I'm not mistaken. For live bait use, I recommend the 3.25:1.
