470-1970 (Drive Shaft) (left)

Genuine Daiwa Drive Shaft (part #470-1970) — the main shaft that transmits rotational force from the handle and drive gear assembly to the spool, enabling line retrieval. A bent or worn drive shaft causes wobble, uneven drag pressure, and rough operation that worsens over time. Cross-references with Daiwa part number 470-1970. OEM replacement ensures perfect fit and factory performance. Available from Offshore Tackle & Repair in Stuart, FL — your trusted source for genuine Daiwa reel parts.
