Need Spring Clamps
Anyone have any recommendations for other spring clamps that can be used with the 10/10t? Mine were stripped out long ago and the spring spacer clips don't provide enough spacing for me. They are no longer available from AE. If anyone knows of other makes that would be compatible could you please let me know?

Re: Need Spring Clamps
Due to the rere they are available, although they are the earlier design that doesn't hold the inner part of the spring

Hmmm.... This may work well but I'm curious that since these don't have the inner sleeve if it's going to have any ill effects? It doesn't seem like the spring would be dancing around if it's compressed.

It will, see link below:

Ok, all kidding aside - Have you tried going to next larger screw size (metric sometimes works). If not, you can also go with longer screws and add a small nut.
Hope this helps,

Re: Need Spring Clamps
The pieces that come with the clip kits work well underneath the clamps

Re: Need Spring Clamps
That's kinda how I have it now. I have the SC10 clips and the clamps because I couldn't get enough spacing with just the clips alone. It looks clunky now which is why I'm looking to change it out.GoMachV wrote:The pieces that come with the clip kits work well underneath the clamps
