Swapping turbo grips for vise
« on: February 15, 2015, 06:58:13 PM »
Currently using vise grips but one of them has turbos.   I'm I able to just change the turbos out for vise?   The turbos have the built in 1/8 forward and the vise I'm using the power lifts.   I also know there is a size difference between turbo and vise.

The O.D of Turbo and Vise are the same, so yes you can just swap them out.

I think the question is....are the inside dimensions the same....

1.  ie does a 23/32 Vise powerlift have the same front lip distance as the 23/32 Turbo power lift?
2.  Does the Turbo lift power lift have a built in 1/8 forward and the vise a built in 1/4 forward?

As an extra, do 10th frame powerlifts have same dimensions as Vise and Turbo?

Grips experts?

Yes both have 1/4 forward on Power Lift, but not on Power Oval

Turbo Quads have a 1/8 built in forward. However the Turbo Power Lift have a 1/4 forward same as Vice Power Lift.

I can't help on this one as I have never used 10th Frame Grips nor do any shops in this area ever carry them

10th Frame used to run at least a size small but I know they redid the molds to get them to match up better with the competitors.  I don't know if they are selling through the old inventory before introducing the new.

So it's really just any easy swap then?  The quads did have 1/8 forward but all my other balls have the vise power lifts trying to make everything feel the same.   The inside and outside diameter are what I was concerned about.
