It all depends on MRC design if the spool will fit the PRO4...my guess unlikely. I'd wait til a Pro4 specific spool is made...that way you're assured propper gear mesh and not have any problems.

If the 7339 is too long but doesn't feels tight, I guess we can still trim it to a required length as long as there is still a hole for the turnbuckle rod to thread in....

have you tried if the 7339 feels smooth??? or just as tight as the 7337?

rookie- I posted it awhile back in the F/S/T forum. No one interested. I felt stupid not asking the PRO4 thread.

the 7337 is ok, very smooth, but really too tight if install to Pro4 original ball head, so that just change it all to Yokomo or other brand.
