Yep, the 1/2 and 9/16 are the same pedals just different spindles .. well, as long as you're using the same model of pedal

Sorry to butt in but does anyone know if the spindles for the 1/2" GT versions of DX's can be swapped?
Thanks :daumenhoch:

I've swapped GT 1/2 and 9/16 DX Spindles on both the single (push insert) pin and the weird double (cast) pin designs. 

So unless there are any other odd designs then I think your okay at swapping between the GT's!!  :daumenhoch:

I dont know about swapping shimmy DX with the GT DX though!!  ???
