Anyone can make 25 pieces (yes 25!) for about $25.00 total. Just a buck apiece. Let�s spread this idea out among our friendly group here. I love them and I am sure you will too.

(by the way these people have most everything)

91251A553 bolts bolt
89975K26 tubing

(1) Take a 1/4�-20 x 2-3/4� long socket head cap screw
(2) Take piece of 3/8� O.D. x .277 I.D. tubing cut the tubing to 2-1/8� long
(3) Insert tubing into grip and insert bolt.

This idea puts a solid steel type insert the entire length of the grip and you don�t have to insert your hex key deep into grip.

Regards,

Bill
