DA Backing Plate Switch


Recommended Posts

I've been using a Griot's Garage DA with a 5" Lake Country backing plate and 5.5" Buff & Shine pads. A few areas are a little hard to reach with the 5.5" pads so rather than buying a whole new 3" DA I was thinking of mounting a 3.5" backing plate and using 4" pads for those areas. Is it ok to do this? Somewhere I thought I remembered seeing something about the balance being thrown off or the rpms being too much when a smaller pad is mounted on a machine that was designed for something larger. Sorry if this is a little off topic but I looked on L2D and couldn't find anything there. Thanks!
