    After taking my qUANTUM tOURNEY tRAIL BAITCASTER APART i realized that some of the bushings are bent. should i bend them back to straight or are they meant to be like that? i have had this reel for about 3 or 4 years.

    You might be talking about drag components – and they are intended to be bent.
