How does the "grip wrench adapter" work? What size/type grip wrench (I assume that means vicegrip) does it take, and how well does that setup work?

I haven't tried the grip wreck Adapter yet But I will try it out to day and let you know. Jimmy

You are correct it's meant for Vice Grips. You simply remove the adjustment screw on the Vice Grips and screw in the adapter; then adjust your grips accordingly and you're ready to go. I used this attachment to remove the rear upper control arm bolts on a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the tool works great. I highly recommend this tool.

You unscrew the end (twist adjustment) on any vice grip and screw it into the hammer slide. Its that easy

The tool works quite well on small jobs i.e. ball bearing pulling etc for instance off electric motors etc, you do not need any tools to adjust anything as there is a turn dial that you adjust that makes the puller arms decrease or increase the diameter of the arms depending on the bearing size or what ever you are pulling and the arms stay in place where ever you adjust them to quite well.

I asked the same question to smith and wesson support since that was the grip they sold on their website for my gun. Luckily their customer support sucks and 2 days after I received it through Amazon and installed it they emailed me saying it couldn't be used for my gun. The grip comes with a piece that the pin holds in place and has a spot for the grip to screw into that so the original grip on the gun looks like a different pin and screw position then the Hogue grip, but it works. Rubber grip helps with shooting the gun since it is a smaller lighter. Gun and the rubber helps keep it stable. The pin is a little difficult to get in place but if you tap it in with a small hammer and pin set it fits. I had to file down the piece that the new grip screws into (plastic) to fit into gun handle properly but I just used the file on a leatherman combo tool

You can replace the right part of the grip shifter.. all you need is locked grip and a saw. cat the spare part and mount it. Guy.

This is a universal standard grip, if you got a different diameter than standard you can tide it with the bolted ends. Specs: Measures 4.7" in length; inner diameter: 0.86", play by that.

Im on same boat as you are but $200 + for a grip is way too much. let me know if you hear anything.

It comes with everything but the tools. All you need are a flips head, and a wrench to fit the nuts that you need to tighten. Also, it comes fully disassembled, so maybe watch a video on how to apply grip tape before trying it

I think the MAIN tool you need is a second set of hands. I tried to do it by myself and, although the bolts have a great self aligning feature built in, I managed to mess up the threads. Luckily, I had a tap and chased the threads and finished the job without further incident. Oh, all the tools you will also need is a Torx screw driver (commonly called a 'star' screw driver.) The size if I'm not mistaking is a T40. I used the T40 bit and a little 1/4" ratchet, since the screws were pretty tight, especially after being in there for 13 years. As you can see it took me much longer than most, so I suggest you get a second set of hands, for a 10-20 minute job. :-) I think the MAIN tool you need is a second set of hands.

Yea,that's about right.You need a lot of leverage when using a torque wrench.Smaller than the Craftsman 1/2" clicker type I've had for years.Works well so far.Only downside is I use it rarely so install/uninstall battery with every use.

I recommend getting something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VGear-7-Inch-Articulating-Friction-Arm-for-Cameras-Video-New-by-Rokinon/290936597244?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D29905%26meid%3Dc36ac1d748824748904a64744ce0b7bb%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D251801324712&rt;=nc

OK, Maybe it will work. Just be sure to check your grip pin. It must be the thin one.

Hi, I can't answer how easily your old hand grips come off, (sometimes you'll need to cut them off, sometimes they slip off easily), but I will say in my experience the GC3's slipped straight onto the bar no problems at all, and tighten via the hex key. Very simple to fit.

It came with it's own Allen wrench. I don't know the size, though. I'm sure if you call Veridian they can advise you. Maybe they'll even send you one?

The screws that come with it are machined screw and they have a small piece of metal that they screw into on the inside of a common hand guard or magpul hand guard. Are you going to screw directly into your fore hand grip?? If so these screws will not work.

I just received mine. It does not work with a standard threaded pole. The grip is not the female end that could be attached to a pole. The handle is the male end and inserts into the end of an Unger made pole. It uses two spring loaded posts to hold it on the pole. Don't buy it unless you have a pole you can adapt it to.

Might have to use a longer allen wrench. Then the one that come with it. I grabbed mine with a pair of pliers. I have a bad wrist tho.

I screwed it to my workbench, but I guess you also can use a vise depending on the shape and material of your workbench.

I use a cresceent adjustàble wrench. It gives good leverage with one hand as you are pushing the tailstock with the other.
