Go to Thunderhorn and order some of their snuggers.

OR, just buy your self a tube of Goop.  Use a tooth pic to smear a layer around the inside of the arrow pads.  I've tightened up two of mine that way.

I usually just use rubber bands intertwined thru the grippers till tight enough.

You can place a small screw between the grippers and screw them in to tighten them up.

Bob York used to make custom replacement grippers for 4-arrow and 8-arrow Bear bow quivers. He could custom punch them for whatever size arrow you use.

Anyone out there have contact info?

I could use a couple myself.

I use heat shrink tubing, cut into small bands , put around gripper and shrink up, sometimes takes a couple but lasts quite awhile

Bike inner tube has worked well for me. Cheap, simple, and effective.
