Title: 2box Clamp L-Rods
Post by: paulf707 on July 29, 2018, 07:41:54 AM
Some of the 2box clamps I've bought (second hand) are missing the L-Rods for the toms.
I've found replacements on dv247, but I'm looking at the ones I have and thinking 'they look like 10mm allen keys'.....

Has anyone tried using an allen key as a replacement? I've found some 'long' allen keys on ebay that might be useful for more flexibility in drum placement......

Any of these yamaha tom mounts are a good option, hex shaped and more solid than the original from 2box.

10mm Allen keys seem to work  ;D
The ones I got have a very long arm which I think may be useful for my planned kit setup - however the 'short' arm is almost too short - it will just reach the far side of the 'ball joint' in the clamp - but only just.
If anyone else is looking at these - check the lengths of both 'halves' of the allen key to make sure they will work.....
