its not a big job to remove the levelwind off a multiplier.but depending what kind of reel it could weaking the frame.if its a 6500 size I wouldn't bother.you have to buy a new ct cage or cut and add new bars.cheaper to buy a second reel with no levelwind.let me know what reel it is I might be able to help you.
common sense not very common
