Quick question regarding look pivot 14s

Yo so I am pretty sure I know the answer to it but wouldn't mind some reassuarnce.

So I am going to mount some look pivot 14s on my skis, but I also have ordered some replacement heels for my full tilt booters. The replacement heels won't be in for about a week, so I am going to mount the skis with the boots as they are now which have the worn down heels...

My question is since I know pivots really have no room for adjustment, would replacing a worn down heel piece with a new one require binding adjustment? Which could potentially mean a remount... Or nah?

Should be ok. Pivots have 5mm adjustment. Don't take my word but I'm 99% sure that it will be ok

you should be fine. you mount the bindings to your boots bsl so i dont think the rubber heel pieces will change the bsl. and you can adjust the piviots a little bit

Awesome guys thanks. If anyone else has more input let me know please before I pull the trigger and mount them tmrw.

Lastly so I know for all my past bindings you could adjust them via the heel piece, just put a screwdriver and lift up. Is the pivot the same way? Like that 5mm adjustment, where is the lever that allows you to adjust it.

The little metal arms that connect the dildo to the baseplate have the adjustment on them

Sorry and you use a wrench or pliers to twist the knob, it's hard to explain I bet there's a vid somewhere...
