Hey Han, The furler is the same. The rebuild kit offered for the 18 furler will do the trick. It's around $40 and worth every cent. You get new bearings, races, snap rings, bushings, housing, and spool. It should take care of pretty much any problem that you have with the furler. To make the bearings 'stick' in the race during assembly, I use a little grease. Don't do this repair on the beach!! There's a bunch of little parts that could get lost. You'll need a screwdriver (older ones were flat, new ones are phillips, or visa versa, can't recall) and a pair of snap ring pliers.
