Can the VariDrives be used with U-hooks?

Can the VariDrives be used with U-hooks?
Asked by: Sandy
Unfortunately, the Impact Varidrives are incompatible with the U-Hooks offered in this Impact Basic Varipole Support System. To use the Varidrives, you may add the Impact ME-122P Single Background Holder Hooks for Super Clamps (2-Pack), BH # IMME122P to the included Super Clamps. https://bhpho.to/3OYFCMe
