    In that case, maybe they don't fit. 🤷‍♂️

    I don't recall trying to mix and match different parts.

      K-Dawg, can you confirm if the GC 60mm perch fits properly on the Turner Hybrid plate? It did not fit properly on my Turner Street plates as it bottomed out on the inner profile before seating, but the profile is different where the bushing sits on the Hybrid. TIA

      *Edit* as I just read this has been asked recently, should have read all the way through.

      Problem with the GC perch is the inner diameter is too small, but paying $189 for a couple of 2.5" perches from Turner is tough to swallow. I may cancel my Hybrid order and just get some Vorshlags
      any idea if the 2.5"/63mm perches would work with 60mm springs?

        No clue, I only have the GC100-A-3 pictured above, but a quick call to GC and they could tell you.

        I have a set of Turner Hybrid plates on order, so I'll update this if the 60mm perches do indeed fit and add some dimensions.

          I was referring to the turner 2.5 perches since they sell them. Nevertheless would love to hear if the GC perches will work. Are they(turner plates) actually in stock now?!

            you can use 2.5" springs on 60mm perch, but not vice versa unless the finished diameter of the 2.5" perch were actually smaller like 2.36". it would be very tight. might vary brand to brand.

              Yeah, figures. Seems like such a small difference on paper but makes a difference in reality. A little sand paper and elbow grease? lol.

                As in the Hybrid plates? Not sure, I ordered a set of them from a reseller for $100+ less than Turner sells them.

                      I wouldn't hesitate, personally. But I'm the type that can handle the holier-than-thou criticism that comes along with doing things unconventionally.

                        Ok, can confirm the ™ Hybrid plates will work with a 60mm GC spring perch, which means you don't need to shell out $185 for a 2.5 from them.

                        Can also confirm, the hybrid plates are made in china/taiwan now, the brittle plastic wrap they come in gives that away easily…

                            Ha, no idea, just talking bs. They are a solid option IMO

                            I ordered off of EuroSportTuning.com
