I'm looking at a pair of Taco Grand Slam bases 270's, anyone have a set?

If so, do you know what the measurement is from the center of the bottom base to the tip of the handle? I want to make sure I have enough clearance between the T-Top posts and the handel. Another option is the offset handle but those Grand Slam bases are sold separate and not sold in a kit.

I'm trying to find out how long the black handle is from the edge to where it meet the base

Phil, AWESOME!!!

Thanks for checking that out for me (I'm sure it felt good to be on the boat!). That is exactly what I needed. Thanks again

Under the cover looked really nice, she weathered the winter FINE!

Had those mounts in my Parker.
Excellent mounts in my opinion with lots of adjustment options and very easy to set out & in.
One caution, the big black knob to set the angle.
Learn to set the angle in so it's locked and tighten down good on the black knob. The black car covering the thru bolt falls off so take it off or remove it and put some hot glue or other adhesive to keep it on
The 1 1/2 poles are ok but 4ft spreader bars will do a number on them.
