I have a Mills Hi-Top circa 1946. I didn't plan on getting into this things so deep but here I am. Looking at the kicker (old style) it seems somewhat worn but I have nothing to compare it with. If it were easy I would replace it. I read a previous post that said "

. However, even with those off I can't see how to remove the kicker without significantly more disassembly.

My question is, should I leave it? The reels work fine. Or, can I get it off without a huge effort? Thanks.
